Hard Disk Drives Control in Mobile Applications
In this paper, control design is investigated for hard disk drives in mobile applications with unknown external arbitrarily fast time-varying disturbances. The disturbances can be estimated with exponential accuracy using the proposed disturbance observer based on a series of integral filters. The position error signal will converge to zero with the proposed control technique for systems subjec...
متن کاملA Stochastic Analysis of Hard Disk Drives
We provide a stochastic analysis of hard disk performance, including a closed form solution for the average access time of a memory request. The model we use covers a wide range of types and applications of disks, and in particular it captures modern innovations like zone bit recording. The derivation is based on an analytical technique we call “shuffling”, which greatly simplifies the analysis...
متن کاملDynamic characterisation of the head-media interface in hard disk drives using novel sensor systems
Hard disk drives function perfectly satisfactorily when used in a stable environment, but in certain applications they are subjected to shock and vibration. During the work reported in this thesis it has been found that when typical hard disk drives are subjected lo vibration, data transfer failure is found to be significant at frequencies between 440Hz and 700Hz, at an extreme, failing at only...
متن کاملModeling and Cancellation of Pivot Nonlinearity in Hard Disk Drives
This paper considers the issue of modeling the pivot nonlinearity in a typical hard disk drive, taking into account viscous friction, Coulomb friction and hysteresis effects. It presents a nonlinear compensator design, based on a proposed model, to make the compensated system behave like a double integrator regardless of the magnitude of the input current. It describes extensive experiments, ca...
متن کاملThe Effect of Diamondlike Carbon Overcoat on the Tribological Performance of the Dimple/Gimbal Interface in Hard Disk Drives1
Fretting wear at the dimple/gimbal interface of a hard disk drive suspension was investigated for stainless steel dimples in contact with stainless steel gimbals coated with diamondlike carbon (DLC) of different thicknesses and different elastic moduli. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to evaluate the size and characteristics of the wear scar of both the dimple and the gimbal. Fretti...
