Abstract
The present paper evaluates how three different top-drive feedback controllers influence the occurrence of a stick-slip limit cycle in a rotating drill string. The considered controllers are: 1) The industry standard stiff, high-gain controller, 2) SoftTorque, and, 3) ZTorque. The evaluation is performed as a simulation study on a distributed model of a drill string with a collar section and Coulomb friction as a distributed source term. This model is capable of replicating stick-slip oscillations as caused by the reduction in friction from static to dynamic, and have been shown to yield a good match with field data. The simulation study is summarized as a map for each controller indicating the existence and amplitude of oscillations, parametrized in the key friction parameters.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
