TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of geological drilling engineering, and particularly relates to a drilling process drill string vibration suppression method and device based on modal analysis. BACKGROUND
[0002] The drill string system is an important tool for carrying out geological drilling, and is used as a hub to connect the surface drilling machine and the downhole drill bit, so as to transmit the driving torque on the well to the drill bit at the bottom of the well, and to apply pressure to the drill bit to break rocks. Therefore, the key to realizing safe and efficient geological drilling is how to drive the drill string to move and then drive the drill bit to extrude and twist to break rocks. With the continuous progress of the drilling process, the length of the drill string used can be thousands of meters, but the diameter is often less than 1 meter. Such a large length-diameter ratio makes the drill string have the physical characteristics of elastic deformation and rigid body motion coupling. Due to this structural characteristic of the drill string, the drill string is prone to vibration when driving the drill bit to break rocks, which makes the drill string vibration one of the most common and most prominent adverse phenomena in the geological drilling process. With the gradual increase of the drilling depth, the stratum changes become more and more complex, and the influence of the drill bit-rock interaction received by the drill bit at the bottom of the hole also becomes more and more intense. The influence of these factors often causes the drill string to produce stick-slip, drill bit rebound and other drill string vibration phenomena, which seriously affects the drilling efficiency and the service life of the drilling tools.
[0003] With the further increase of the drilling depth, the stratum changes affect the drill string vibration to exhibit a complex multi-modal and highly nonlinear motion state, which brings great difficulty to the control of the drilling process. Most of the existing control methods can only suppress the low-order modal of the drill string vibration, and the control effect on the high-order vibration modal of the drill string is generally poor, which leads to the fact that the designed controller cannot eliminate the drill string vibration in the actual deep geological drilling process.

At the same time, although expanding the filter bandwidth can lead to unsatisfactory overall control effect, it can shorten the time for the drill string to first leave the stick stage during drilling and reduce the energy accumulation of the drill string, which also has significance for reducing the wear of the drilling tool.
