Abstract Aiming at the current development of drilling technology and the deepening of oil and gas exploration, we focus on better studying the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the drill string under complex working conditions and knowing the real movement of the drill string during drilling. This paper firstly combines the actual situation of the well to establish the dynamic model of the horizontal drill string, and analyzes the dynamic characteristics, giving the expression of the force of each part of the model. Secondly, it introduces the piecewise constant method (simply known as PT method), and gives the solution equation. Then according to the basic parameters, the axial vibration displacement and vibration velocity at the test points are solved by the PT method and the Runge–Kutta method, respectively, and the phase diagram, the Poincare map, and the spectrogram are obtained. The results obtained by the two methods are compared and analyzed. Finally, the relevant experimental tests are carried out. It shows that the results of the dynamic model of the horizontal drill string are basically consistent with the results obtained by the actual test, which verifies the validity of the dynamic model and the correctness of the calculated results. When solving the drill string nonlinear dynamics, the results of the PT method is closer to the theoretical solution than that of the Runge–Kutta method with the same order and time step. And the PT method is better than the Runge–Kutta method with the same order in smoothness and continuity in solving the drill string nonlinear dynamics.

AbstractWe compute the $$\mathcal{N}=2$$ N = 2 supersymmetric partition function of a gauge theory on a four-dimensional compact toric manifold via equivariant localization. The result is given by a piecewise constant function of the Kähler form with jumps along the walls where the gauge symmetry gets enhanced. The partition function on such manifolds is written as a sum over the residues of a product of partition functions on $$\mathbb {C}^2$$ C 2 . The evaluation of these residues is greatly simplified by using an “abstruse duality” that relates the residues at the poles of the one-loop and instanton parts of the $$\mathbb {C}^2$$ C 2 partition function. As particular cases, our formulae compute the SU(2) and SU(3) equivariant Donaldson invariants of $$\mathbb {P}^2$$ P 2 and $$\mathbb {F}_n$$ F n and in the non-equivariant limit reproduce the results obtained via wall-crossing and blow up methods in the SU(2) case. Finally, we show that the U(1) self-dual connections induce an anomalous dependence on the gauge coupling, which turns out to satisfy a $$\mathcal {N}=2$$ N = 2 analog of the $$\mathcal {N}=4$$ N = 4 holomorphic anomaly equations.

This paper proposes new closed expressions of self-impedance using the Method of Moments with the Point Matching Procedure and piecewise constant and linear basis functions in different configurations, which allow saving computing time for the solution of wire antennas with complex geometries. The new expressions have complexity O(1) with well-defined theoretical bound errors. They were compared with an adaptive numerical integration. We obtain an accuracy between 7 and 16 digits depending on the chosen basis function and segmentation used. Besides, the computing time involved in the calculation of the self-impedance terms was evaluated and compared with the time required by the adaptative quadrature integration solution of the same problem. Expressions have a run-time bounded between 50 and 200 times faster than an adaptive numerical integration assuming full computation of all constant of the expressions.

AbstractA method for obtaining the exact solution for the total variation denoising problem of piecewise constant images in dimension one is presented. The validity of the algorithm relies on some results concerning the behavior of the solution when the parameter λ in front of the fidelity term varies. Albeit some of them are well-known in the community, here they are proved with simple techniques based on qualitative geometrical properties of the solutions.
