Abstract
Wellbore operations include rotating a drill string in a wellbore. The drill string includes a rotary steerable system having at least three pads configured to contact the wellbore wall to steer a direction of drilling. These are simultaneously actuated while rotating the drill string to mitigate stick slip, harmonic stick slip, or backward whirl oscillations.
