Abstract:The virtual simulation technology is called virtual reality or simulation technology, imitating real system with a virtual system, its application in scientific research, teaching and training for drilling industry is an innovative attempt. The drilling virtual simulation experimental teaching platform includes the teaching accumulation of drilling profession, computer virtual simulation technology and other disciplines, which solves many difficulties in production practice of college students majoring in drilling and excavation engineering. The virtual drilling simulation platform has provided virtual simulation teaching for several related professions, and is well received by students with good teaching effect. This platform can also be used in the operation training for drilling technicians and operators as well as for scientific research and technical services.
