This paper presents a discrete-time design of a dual-stage actuator control system with sliding mode for computer disk drives. A state estimator based discrete-time boundary layer sliding mode control scheme is developed for a dual-stage actuator, which consists of a voice coil motor and a microactuator. Considering dominant microactuator flexible mode dynamics and the interaction between the two actuators, an optimal sliding hyperplane is designed to maximize their cooperation so as to attain desired responses. An application example demonstrates the utility of the proposed sliding mode dual-stage actuator control scheme for track-seek in the microactuator range, settle, and track-follow.

The time dependence of static friction is an important aspect of tribological studies whereby the static friction increases with an increase in the time of stationary contact (rest static friction or rest stiction). This effect is commonly observed in computer disk drives especially at high humidities, in which the static friction increases rapidly with an increase in rest time between some head slider and the disk surfaces. For the first time, a comprehensive kinetic meniscus model is proposed to explain this phenomenon, both for a single asperity and multiple asperity contacts at a liquid mediated interface. It is found that the static friction increases up to a certain equilibrium time with a power law relationship after which it remains constant. The equilibrium time is dependent on the liquid film thickness, the liquid viscosity and the contact geometry. The model developed is applied to a rough textured disk, a polished disk and a super smooth disk. To study the effect of the scan size on the meniscus force, the static friction is calculated by using roughness parameters obtained from measurements at different scan sizes.
