In this paper, solid particle erosion behaviors of AISI 1020 steel and Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy materials were experimentally and numerically investigated. Experiments and numerical simulations were carried out for the conditions of different particle impact velocities (100, 127, 170, 210, 250 m/s) and angles (20, 30, 45, 60, 90‹). Moreover, erosion performances on the erosion shield of a helicopter rotor blade of aforementioned materials were numerically determined for the condition of angle of attack of 0. and impact velocity of 230 m/s. Numerical erosion analyzes were performed with ANSYS_Fluent 15.0 package program using discrete phase method with Eulerian- Lagrangian approach and an empirical erosion equation while experimental erosion tests were conducted by MIL-STD-3033 standard. As a result, numerical results were in good agreement with the experimental data, and it was obtained that erosion performance on the shield surface of AISI 1020 steel material is better than Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy material.

In this paper, we propose a novel shockproof head gimbals assembly (HGA) structure incorporated with "a balanced-type head suspension" for 0.85-in hard disk drives (HDD5), and investigated its performance on external shock resistance during read/write operations. Experimental drop impact test results confirm that the 0.85-in drive equipped with the new suspension structure is durable over 2000 G (1.0 ms duration) of external shock, ensuring no head slider and/or disk surface damage. According to computer simulation and experimental results, potential shock resistance of more than 2000 G may also be possible with the head actuator itself, which points to its application in cellular phones.

In this paper a new RC - active polyphase filter section is presented. The section uses three conventional current conveyor (CCII). With a cascade of these sections, any higher order polyphase filter function can be realized. Frequency transfer functions, gain and phase errors of the proposed section are derived for ideal and nonideal CCIIs. In the case of using nonideal CCIIs filter characteristics are investigated by performing computer simulations. Also the paper deals with the leakage caused by the effects of a limited gains of a current conveyors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
