B. Liu et al., MENISCUS FORCE MODELING AND STUDY ON THE FLUCTUATION OF STICTION FRICTION FORCE IN CSS TEST PROCESS/, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 33(5), 1997, pp. 3121-3123
This paper presents results of experimental investigations and explana
tions on the stiction modulation phenomena during the contact start st
op (CSS) testing process. A new meniscus model is proposed which well
account for the stiction modulation with the variation of lubricant th
ickness on slider. It is illustrated that the lubricant build-up on sl
ider surface is of a relatively steady level of thickness. The depleti
on and re-distribution of the lubricant on slider may cause reversible
high/low stiction.
