    Abstract: A method and system for quantitatively evaluating kerogen swelling oil in shale is provided. The method includes: establishing different types of kerogen molecular models, and loading each of the kerogen molecular models into a graphene slit-type pore composed of a lamellar structure; performing energy minimization (EM), relaxation and annealing to obtain a kerogen slit-type pore; loading a shale oil molecule into the kerogen slit-type pore to obtain an initial model of swelling and adsorption of shale oil in kerogen; assigning a value to a force field of the shale oil molecule and the kerogen molecule in the swelling and adsorption model to obtain a density of the kerogen and the shale oil; plotting a density curve of the kerogen and the shale oil; calculating kerogen swelling oil mass; determining per-unit kerogen swelling oil mass; and determining the kerogen swelling oil mass in different evolution stages.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a composite shock absorber for a polycrystalline diamond compact bit, comprising a drilling tool body having a water inlet, an impact body having a water outlet and forming a shock absorption cavity, a disc spring group having an annular pressing sleeve, a cylindrical torsion bar spring which has an external thread and a spline, is connected to the drilling tool body through threads and extended into an impactor and connected thereto through the spline, and the annular pressing sleeve, wherein bit vibration impact force is transmitted therebetween through a torsion transmission joint, and a bearing group is arranged between the lower end surface of the annular pressing sleeve and an annular step of the impact body. The composite shock absorber can weaken damage of the slippage effect to polycrystalline diamond compact cutting teeth, absorb axial vibration from a drill stem and prolong the service life of the bit.
