Popis: A finite element model of wellbore stability was proposed for a horizontal well, and drill-string friction and lateral collision in the process of rotary motion were taken into account. An unconfined compression test was used for model validation, the normalized yielded zone area (NYZA) was employed to analyze wellbore stability, and the influence of a lateral collision on wellbore stability was simulated. The results indicated that the stress-strain curve of numerical simulation consists with unconfined compression test, and the maximum relative error is
