The suspension of the optical pickup actuator is damped by the presence of silicone rubber damper bond at its termination. In spite of the presence of it, the actuator still exhibits a strong mechanical resonance which affects its settling time and vibrational characteristics. This resonance can cause errors in reading information from the disk, particularly in high speed CD-ROM and DVD-ROM drives. Ferrofluids are stable colloidal suspensions of sub-micron sized magnetic particles in a carrier liquid. In the actuator design, ferrofluid is applied to the surface of the magnets until the quantity is sufficient to maintain intimate contact with the bobbin/carrier assembly. The fluid is retained in the magnetic field and its viscosity provides the desired mechanical damping to the moving assembly, improving the actuators settling time and vibrational characteristics. Access time is also improved, particularly on warped or eccentric discs.

The problem of the transient interaction of a plane acoustic shock wave which has an infinitely steep wave front with a cylindrical or spherical elastic shell has been studied analytically from early fifties based on the integral transform and series solution techniques. Huang adopted an inverse Laplace transform, and used a finite number of terms of the infinite series expansion of the equations for the shells. In the 1990s, the results have been used by many authors for validation of computer codes. The object of this paper is to discuss the interaction between a moving source and submerged spherical shells. Since the center of source is moving the first contact location between the waves and shell changes depending on the source velocity and distance. These are considered in the analysis. Furthermore, constant source strength and decreasing strength are considered in the analysis. Radial velocities at several locations on the structure are obtained and the results are discussed.

In order to apply into a compact and reliable centrifugal blood pump, this paper introduces a self-bearing motor in which a rotor is rotated without contact. The rotor is actively controlled in only radial directions, while the axial and tilting motions are passively stable owing to the disk-shape structure of the rotor. A prototype was made in outer-rotor type that is far better in the compactness than inner-rotor type. The prototype could be driven up to 8000 rpm with the rotor vibration under 0.12mm. The maximum cardiac output and pressure head were 9 L/min and over 200 mmHg, respectively. These experimental results show that the proposed self-bearing motor has sufficient performance for application to a real blood pump.

In this study. a computer simulation of the Korean High Speed Prototype Test Train was performed to investigate the dynamic behavior(running stability. safety and comfort) in detail design process. The simulation model which was prepared by ADAMS/Rail V10.l consists of power car and middle car assembly (2 motorized cars ＋ 3 trailer cars). The nonlinear analysis takes into account the full vehicle model including wheel/rail contact and the influence of disturbed track. Throughout the dynamic calculation of KHST on the straight and the curved track. accelerations in car body. ride comforts and wheel rail forces were investigated.

Most hard disk drives that apply the ramp load/unload technology unload the heads at the outer edge of the disk while the disk is rotating. During the unloading process, slider-disk contacts may occur by lift-off force and rebound of the slider. The main issue of this paper is to prevent the slider-disk contact by changing the state matrix. Because the state matrix is related to the suspension and slider, to change the state matrix means the structural change of the suspension and slider. We investigate influence for variation of the state matrix components and analyze the relation between the state matrix and the suspension/slider.

The main purpose of this paper is to Investigate the free vibrations of circular curved members resting on nonhomogeneous elastic foundations. The governing differential equations derived in a previous paper are used. The governing equations are solved numerically to obtain frequencies. Hinged-hinged end constraint is considered in numerical examples. The lowest three natural frequencies are calculated over a wide range of non-dimensional system parameters: the foundation rested ratio, the foundation parameter, the horizontal rise to span length ratio, the slenderness ratio, and the width ratio of the contact area between the member and the foundation.

The areal density of the hard disk drive(HDD) has been increased due to technological advances recently. To achieve the high areal density magnetic recording requires an extremely small gap between the air-bearing surface (ABS) and disk. At the same time, the slider mass and size should be reduced to minimize the physical contact under the operational and environmental conditions. Almost all of 2.5＂HDD companies will get ready for adoption of FEMTO slider and already utilized the small slider. FEMTO and small size slider will be mainstream in the 2.5" and other small form factor HDD in the near future. In this study, the flying characteristic of FEMTO slider was examined. Based on the simulation, FEMTO slider is very stable in flying dynamic under the disk modulation, however the flying height sensitivity of the manufacturing tolerances is much bigger than PICO slider. And the other characteristics like impulse response and load/unload dynamic were also examined in this study.tudy.

A simulation program for vehicle dynamic analysis was developed. The Cartesisn coordinate system was used for translational motion and the Euler angle system was used for rotational motion. A three dimensional multi-wheeled vehicle model and equations of motion were derived. Also static equilibrium analysis was added for initial vehicle condition setting. The program user can describe the exact characteristics of suspension spring force and damping force in the user subroutine. A wheel-ground contact model which represents geometrical effect was developed. Two cases of simulation for 16 D.O.F. vehicle model were conducted to validate the developed program by comparing the simulation results with the experimental data.

As a disk drive becomes widely used in portable environments, one of the important requirements is durability under severe environmental condition, especially, resistance to mechanical shock. An important challenge in the disk recording is to improve disk drive robustness in shock environments. If the system comes In contact with outer shock disturbance, the system gets critical damage in head-gimbal assembly or disk. This paper describes analysis of a HGA(head-gimbal assembly) in micro MO drives to shock loading during both non-operating state and operating state. A finite element model which consists of the disk, suspension, slider and air bearing was used to find structural response of micro MO drives. In the operational case. the air bearing is approximated with four linear elastic springs. The commercially available finite element solver, ANSYS/LS-DYNA, is used to simulate the shock response of the HGA in micro MO drives. In this paper, the mechanical robustness of the suspension is simuiated considering the shock responses of the HGA.

The KNR(Korean National Railroad) has a speed limit regulation(130km/h) for the train passing the turnout to guarantee a safety. Since that speed is set as below the maximum commercial speed(140km/h), it has been regarded as a major factor to obstacle the total efficiency. The crossing rail part of the turnout system is formed into a antisymmetric, furthermore, there are several discontinuous part. Thus, measuring the strain signals of this part is impossible actually and it must be in the most difficult work related the turnout research. In this research, the program that can anticipate the signals at the various conditions with considering its own shape was developed and the preciousness of its results had been examined by comparing analyzed and measured ones at the other parts. The simulation was performed with varying the factors such as train speed and contact depth. As a results, it was proved that the regulation was not useless and very important guide at least up to now.
