✦ Synopsis


An experimental technique to predict the onset of aeroelastic #utter of an enclosed computer memory disk is presented. The aerodynamic pressure is modelled as the sum of dissipative and circulatory linear operators, which subsumes as a special case the pressure generated in a thin hydrodynamic "lm between the disk and the wall. It is shown that the aeroelastic model parameters can be extracted from the frequency response function of the disk spinning at subcritical speeds. The aeroelastic parameters for an acoustically excited single disk at di!erent enclosure gaps are derived for the speed range 6,000}19,800 rpm. The #utter speed predicted is strongly in#uenced by the enclosure gap and the substrate damping. A #utter speed as low as 35,000 rpm has been predicted. The technique can also be extended to predict the #utter speed in other systems including DVD and CDROM drives.

The recording head in a hard disk drive (HDD) is supported by an actuator assembly which is being controlled by a servo system. Structural resonance modes in the actuator impact the performance of the servo system. The actuator rocking mode has been identified as a major contributor to seek settling

As the recording track density increases in hard-disk drives, the off-track error-rejection capability of the servo controller must also be increased. The high rejection capability is achieved by increasing the servo bandwidth; however, the ability to extend the bandwidth is limited by the actuator'
