Abstract

The static and dynamic characteristics of HDD slider with ulta-low flying height are analyzed using Direct Numerical method with Boundary Fitted Coordinate System. The slip flow effect is considered using the Boltzmann equation solution in a form of the flow rate database. The air film stiffness and damping are evaluated by the small perturbation method.
