Whirl Vibration

Whirl Vibration is a dynamic instability phenomenon in drilling mechanics characterized by the non-synchronous orbital motion of the drill string around the borehole axis, arising from the interaction of rotational forces, bit–rock interactions, and lateral vibrations, which distinguishes it from other vibrational modes by its self-sustaining precessional trajectory.
