GOALI: Tribology of an Improved Head-Tape Interface: Experiments and Modelling to Ensure Contact and Low Wear

9615027罗杰斯研究人员在麻省理工学院Haystack天文台，与研究人员在希捷磁带技术公司合作，将设计一种改进的磁头-磁带接口，用于线性磁带录音机。 改进的薄膜磁头技术对于必须以快速和廉价的方式存储大量数据的应用是必要的。 目前的薄膜磁头设计将通过实验来改进，以调查在低接触压力下的磨损，并通过计算机模拟的磁头-磁带接口。 ***

9615027 Rogers Researchers at MIT-Haystack Observatory, in collaboration with researchers at Seagate Tape Technology Inc., will design an improved head-tape interface for use in linear magnetic tape recorders. Improved thin film head technology is necessary for applications in which vast amounts of data must be stored in a fast and inexpensive means. Current thin-film tape head design will be improved through experimentation to investigate wear at low contact pressures, and through the computer-modeling of the head-tape interface. ***
