Recent developments in planet migration theory

open access: yes, 2012
Planetary migration is the process by which a forming planet undergoes a drift of its semi-major axis caused by the tidal interaction with its parent protoplanetary disc.

Novel Torque and Drag Model for Drilling Two-Dimensional High-Angle Wells

open access: yesACS Omega, 2022
Planning high-angle wells involves diverse areas; one of the most important of these areas is torque and drag (T&D) management. Not only could uncontrolled T&D cause various drilling problems like drill string (D/S) failures, casing wear, stuck pipes, and slow rates of penetration but it could also entirely stop the drilling progress, if torque and/or ...

On the horseshoe drag of a low-mass planet. II Migration in adiabatic disks

open access: yes, 2009
We evaluate the horseshoe drag exerted on a low-mass planet embedded in a gaseous disk, assuming the disk's flow in the coorbital region to be adiabatic.

Stability Analysis and Visual Application of Drill String Drag and Torque Test Device

open access: yesShiyou jixie, 2021
The nonlinear buckling of the drill string during drilling affects the safe and stable operation of the drag and torque test device. For the horizontal well drag and torque test device, based on the dynamic software ADAMS, combined with the force balance

Turbulent drag in a rotating frame

open access: yes, 2016
What is the turbulent drag force experienced by an object moving in a rotating fluid? This open and fundamental question can be addressed by measuring the torque needed to drive an impeller at constant angular velocity $\omega$ in a water tank mounted on

Bubbly Turbulent Drag Reduction Is a Boundary Layer Effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In turbulent Taylor-Couette flow, the injection of bubbles reduces the overall drag. On the other hand, rough walls enhance the overall drag. In this work, we inject bubbles into turbulent Taylor-Couette flow with rough walls (with a Reynolds number up ...

Analysis of the Influence of Clutch Drag Torque on the Efficiency of Hydro-mechanical Continuously Variable Transmission

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2022
In order to study the influence of multiple clutches on the transmission efficiency of a hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission (HMCVT),the structure characteristics of a closed loop consisting of multiple wet friction clutches in the ...
