Abstract
Recently, the number of disks has been increased and the gap between the slider and disk has been decreased. These changes occur the contact between ramp and disk easily. The external shock and ramp-disk contact cause the change of disk curvature. The change of disk curvature affects air bearing pressure between slider and disk. However, the disk curvature is not considered on the previous researches. In the research, the simulation procedure was performed under the assumption that the slider and disk were paralleled. This assumption cannot reflect the real disk phenomenon. Therefore, this research investigates the influence of disk curvature under the shock condition.
