Abstract: During a serious underground incident the most important things are the lives of miners and the time necessary for the rescue team to find victims of the accident. The paper presents the concept of a new drilling system that uses torsional vibrations in the drilling process. In the article formulating mathematical models of a drilling rig is one of the tasks of the INDIRES (INformation Driven Incident RESponse) project implemented as a part of the European Research Fund for Coal and Steel. The INDIRES project is dedicated to the task of conducting a rescue operation after accidents in mines.
