In the present study, we have simulated stress characteristics and vibration modes in the back plate of head-stack driving motor of 2.5 inch small sized hard disk drives (HDDs). The magnets in head-stack driving motor have large magnetic fields, and therefore, the resulting large force may induce fracture and deformation in the back plate of the motor. Since the high-speed motion of head-stack motor generates high frequency vibration, we analyzed the vibration mode to avoid resonant frequency. ANSYS software was used in this study to check the deformation of back plate with the following design parameters: thickness of plate, the number of support beams, and the width of support beams. From the vibration mode analysis, we obtained a stable plate shape whose operating frequency is off the resonant frequency.

The low-frequency vibrational and low-temperature thermal properties of amorphous solids are markedly different from those of crystalline solids. This situation is counterintuitive because all solid materials are expected to behave as a homogeneous elastic body in the continuum limit, in which vibrational modes are phonons that follow the Debye law. A number of phenomenological explanations for this situation have been proposed, which assume elastic heterogeneities, soft localized vibrations, and so on. Microscopic mean-field theories have recently been developed to predict the universal non-Debye scaling law. Considering these theoretical arguments, it is absolutely necessary to directly observe the nature of the low-frequency vibrations of amorphous solids and determine the laws that such vibrations obey. Herein, we perform an extremely large-scale vibrational mode analysis of a model amorphous solid. We find that the scaling law predicted by the mean-field theory is violated at low frequency, and in the continuum limit, the vibrational modes converge to a mixture of phonon modes that follow the Debye law and soft localized modes that follow another universal non-Debye scaling law.

Anti-plane dynamic shear of a strongly inhomogeneous dynamic laminate with traction-free faces is analysed. Two types of contrast are considered, including those for composite structures with thick or thin stiff outer layers. In both cases, the value of the cut-off frequency corresponding to the lowest antisymmetric vibration mode tends to zero. For this mode, the shortened dispersion relations and the associated formulae for displacement and stresses are obtained. The latter motivate the choice of appropriate settings, supporting the limiting forms of the original anti-plane problem. The asymptotic equation derived for a three-layered plate with thick faces is valid over the whole low-frequency range, whereas the range of validity of its counterpart for another type of contrast is restricted to a narrow vicinity of the cut-off frequency.

The terahertz frequency absorption spectra of DNA molecules reflect low-frequency internal helical vibrations involving rigidly bound subgroups that are connected by the weakest bonds, including the hydrogen bonds of the DNA base pairs, and/or non-bonded interactions. Although numerous difficulties make the direct identification of terahertz phonon modes in biological materials very challenging, recent studies have shown that such measurements are both possible and useful. Spectra of different DNA samples reveal a large number of modes and a reasonable level of sequence-specific uniqueness. This chapter utilizes computational methods for normal mode analysis and theoretical spectroscopy to predict the low-frequency vibrational absorption spectra of short artificial DNA and RNA. Here the experimental technique is described in detail, including the procedure for sample preparation. Careful attention was paid to the possibility of interference or etalon effects in the samples, and phenomena were clearly differentiated from the actual phonon modes. The results from Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy of DNA macromolecules and related biological materials in the terahertz frequency range are presented. In addition, a strong anisotropy of terahertz characteristics is demonstrated. Detailed tests of the ability of normal mode analysis to reproduce RNA vibrational spectra are also conducted. A direct comparison demonstrates a correlation between calculated and experimentally observed spectra of the RNA polymers, thus confirming that the fundamental physical nature of the observed resonance structure is caused by the internal vibration modes in the macromolecules. Application of artificial neural network analysis for recognition and discrimination between different DNA molecules is discussed.
