Is Relative Pitch Specific to Pitch? [PDF]

open access: yesPsychological Science, 2008
Melodies, speech, and other stimuli that vary in pitch are processed largely in terms of the relative pitch differences between sounds. Relative representations permit recognition of pitch patterns despite variations in overall pitch level between instruments or speakers.

Plenty of pitches [PDF]

open access: yesNature Physics, 2020
The note A tuned to 440 Hz only became the norm for musical performance in 1939 after decades of international and interdisciplinary disputes. Fanny Gribenski retraces this rocky path.

The Relationship between the Glenohumeral Joint Internal Rotation Deficit and the Trunk Compensation Movement in Baseball Pitchers

open access: yesMedicina, 2021
Background and objectives: Glenohumeral joint internal rotation deficit (GIRD) is commonly observed in the dominant arm of baseball pitchers and is limited by horizontal adduction motions.

Stride Length Impacts on Sagittal Knee Biomechanics in Flat Ground Baseball Pitching

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Coordinated lower extremity biomechanics are altered in response to changes in stride length, influencing the kinetic chain that potentially induces compensatory throwing mechanics throughout the baseball pitching cycle.

Individualised Ball Speed Prediction in Baseball Pitching Based on IMU Data

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Ball velocity is considered an important performance measure in baseball pitching. Proper pitching mechanics play an important role in both maximising ball velocity and injury-free participation of baseball pitchers.

Control of rotorcraft retreating blade stall using air-jet vortex generators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A series of low-speed wind tunnel tests were carried out on an oscillating airfoil fitted with two rows of air-jet vortex generators (AJVGs). The airfoil used had an RAE 9645 section and the two spanwise arrays of AJVGs were located at x/c=0.12 and 0.62.

Pitch Perception [PDF]

open access: yesAttention, Perception & Psychophysics, 2008
This article is a review of the psychophysical study of pitch perception. The history of the study of pitch has seen a continual competition between spectral and temporal theories of pitch perception. The pitch of complex stimuli is likely based on the temporal regularities in a sound's waveform, with the strongest pitches occurring for stimuli with ...

Comparison of Kinematic Sequences During Curveball and Fastball Baseball Pitches

open access: yesFrontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2021
Performance of a sequential proximal-to-distal transfer of segmental angular velocity (or Kinematic Sequence) is reported to reduce stress on musculoskeletal structures and thus the probability of injury while also maximizing ball velocity.
