A transient T-F(time-frequency) signal processing technique is applied to a tilt drop and a linear shock test rigs for identification of shock characteristics of hard disk drive (HDD). The T-F technique essentially tracks the shock characteristics of pivot point response as well as head slap and lift-off phenomena. From the T-F analysis result, the shock characteristic in HDD is modeled by the two degree of freedom coupled-dynamic system, which consists of actuator arm and suspension. As shock designing tool, the maximax shock response spectrum is employed for prediction of shock performance. Finally, the shock control technique is tested with newly designed actuator arm and suspension. Experimental head slap test result shows that the shock performance is much higher with the new shockproof designed model than the current model

Helicopters and rotary-wing vehicles encounter a wide variety of complex aerodynamic phenomena and these phenomena present substantial challenges for computational fluid dynamics(CFD) models. This investigation presents the rotor aerodynamic analysis items for the helicopter development and variety aerodynamic analysis methods to provide the better solution to researchers and helicopter developers between aerodynamic problems and numerical aerodynamic analysis methods. The numerical methods to make an analysis of helicopter rotor are as below - CFD Modelling : actuator disk model, BET model, fully rotor model,... - Grid : sliding mesh, chimera mesh / structure mesh, unstructure mesh,... - etc. : panel method periodic boundary, quasi-steady simulation, incompressible,... The choice of CFD methodology and the numerical resolution for the overall problem have been driven mostly by available computer speed and memory at any point in time. The combination of the knowledge of aerodynamic analysis items, available computing power and choice of CFD methods now allows the solution of a number of important rotorcraft aerodynamics design problems.

In order to read correct data from a disk-type holographic storage medium, it is very important to implement a servo-control in the pick-up module, as in a conventional CD-ROM. We propose a novel servo-control method using a glass plate on the optical axis, which is able to compensate the mechanical errors coming from wobbling of holographic disk and spindle motor. By rotating the glass plate within $\pm$10 degrees, we can reduce the reading errors of $\pm$200 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to $\pm$15 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

During seek operation in disk drives, the recording head is moved toward desired track by seek servo controller and then is settled onto the center of the desired track by settling servo controller. If the head speed at the start of settling servo control is not slow, it may produce overshoot relative to the center of track and thus extend the settling time. The degradation in settling performance will be more severe as the track width becomes smaller for higher density of data storage. We design a new settling servo controller for minimizing settling time based on the pole-zero cancellation. In order to cancel slow poles in settling response, we apply discrete pulse signals to the system in addition to the state feedback control. For exact pole-zero cancellation, we consider the dynamics of power amplifier used for actuator current regulation and the effects of delay in control action. In addition, we present system parameter identification algerian for the robustness of our controller to system parameter variation. In order to demonstrate the practical use of our controller, we present experimental results obtained by using a commercially available disk drive.

The angular electrostatic microactuator using skewed electrode array (SEA) scheme was proposed. The moving and fixed electrodes are arranged to make the driving force perpendicular to the rotating moment of arm. By changing the electrode overlap length, the magnitude of electrostatic force and stable displacement will be changed. In order to optimize the design, electrostatic FE analysis were carried out and the empirical force model was established for SEA. Simulation was performed to make the comparison between conventional actuators and SEA. The proposed SEA generates actuating torque 2 times greater than a comb-drive and stable actuator displacement 40% greater than a parallel plate type actuator. The angular electrostatic microactuator using skewed SEA scheme was designed and fabricated using SoG process.

In the case of control for mechanical systems, it is highly useful to be able to provide a compact model of the mechanical system to control engineers using the smallest number of state variables, while still providing an accurate model. The reduced mechanical model can then be inserted into the complete system models and used for extended system-level dynamic simulation. In this paper, moment-matching based model order reductions (MOR) using Krylov subspaces, which reduce the number of degrees of freedom of an original finite element model via the Arnoldi process, are presented to study the eigenvalue and frequency response problems of a HDD actuator and suspension system.

This paper presents active control of aperture type near-field storage head. In order to achieve fast and accurate control, dual servo control algorithm is applied. Based on the big difference in time constant, we seperate two actuator and control independently. With the combination of fine and coarse actuator, gap is controlled within 100nm until the disk rotates upto 10 rpm speed. From the experimental results, the feasibility and performance of active gap control is proved.

The areal recording density of HDD(Hard Disk Drive) has been increasing by about 60% a year. In order to achieve high areal density, less track pitch is expected and more servo bandwidth is required. Dual stage actuator and servo controller for HDD have been suggested for achieving high track density as a possible solution. Dual-loop servo system is generally classified into a two-input-two-output system, but if we use an estimator for a two-input-two-output system, it can be converted into two input one output system. Since we can't control the dual stage servo system by the classical method, it requires a special technique; for example, Parallel Loop System, Master-Slave Loop System, Decoupled Master-Slave Loop System, and Dual Feedback Loop System. In this paper, we performed experimental evaluations of several types of control algorithm. Further experiments will be made in the future.

The micro laser module was designed and prepared to deliver the light to the HAMR head. It consists of laser diode, photo diode and actuator to realize stable light delivery even though the head is fluctuated during the disk rotation. The optical evaluation was carried out with the actual distance between the light source and HAMR head with a range of reflectivity and it was found that the incident angle could be controlled within ${\pm}0.125^{\circ}$ to maintain same intensity into the HAMR head. It was also confirmed that the designed micro laser module is thermally stable without any severe effect on the magnetic head.

본 연구에서는 적층형 압전소자를 이용하여 초소형 및 슬림형 광디스크 드라이브용 광픽업 구동기를 개발하였다. 최근에 휴대용 정보기기의 급격한 발달로 인해 다양한 형태의 초소형 정보저장기기가 사용되고 있으며 착탈식 형태의 초소형 광디스크를 사용하는 ODD가 개발 중에 있다. 적층 형태의 압전소자와 유연 힌지 형태의 변위 확대기구를 사용하여 구동기의 출력 힘과 허용 변위를 증가시키도록 설계하였다. 압전형 구동기의 동특성을 고려한 모델링과 이론적 해석을 통해 목표 변위와 성능을 만족하도록 설계 변수를 최적화하였고 이를 ANSYS를 이용한 해석과 비교하였다. 상용화된 적층형 압전소자를 이용한 prototype 올 제작하여 실험을 수행하였으며 이론적인 예상 값과 잘 일치함을 보였다. 이와 같은 이론적 해석과 실험 결과를 토대로 높이가 2.5mm이며 15V 에서 $\pm$400$\mu\textrm{m}$의 변위를 갖는 슬림형 및 초소형 ODD에 적합한 압전형 구동기를 설계하였다.
