Modal analysis of coupled system of magnetic head and gas film was carried out to obtain natural frequencies, damping rates and mode shapes of the magnetic head vibrations. Vibration stability of Ω-type magnetic head was predicted in this work. Numerical results indicate that the natural frequencies of the coupled system increases as the gas film thickness decreases, and the natural frequencies and damping rate of the coupled vibration modes of heave and pitch motions are much lower than those of uncoupled modes.
