Effects of heaving and pitching motions on underside aerodynamics of a sedan vehicle
Unsteady pressure distributions around a simplified sedan automobile model were investigated by conducting dynamic wind-tunnel testing using the newly developed forced oscillating apparatus, HEXA-X3, which can produce 6-degrees-of-freedom motion.

Biomechanical Basis of Interval Throwing Programs for Baseball Pitchers: A Systematic Review
# Background Interval throwing programs are used in rehabilitation of throwing injuries, especially ulnar collateral ligament injuries. Athletes who are rehabilitating begin by throwing on flat ground progressing through increasing distances, number of ...

Comparison of Kinematic Sequences During Curveball and Fastball Baseball Pitches
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.

Pitch is one of the primary auditory sensations and plays a defining role in music, speech, and auditory scene analysis. Although the main physical correlate of pitch is acoustic periodicity, or repetition rate, there are many interactions that complicate the relationship between the physical stimulus and the perception of pitch.

Hydrodynamic stability of swimming in ostraciid fishes: role of the carapace in the smooth trunkfish Lactophrys triqueter (Teleostei: Ostraciidae) [PDF]
The hydrodynamic bases for the stability of locomotory motions in fishes are poorly understood, even for those fishes, such as the rigid-bodied smooth trunkfish Lactophrys triqueter, that exhibit unusually small amplitude recoil movements during ...

Effects of non-sinusoidal pitching motion on the propulsion performance of an oscillating foil.
Numerical simulations have been used in this paper to study the propulsion device of a wave glider based on an oscillating hydrofoil, in which the profile of the pitching and heaving motion have been prescribed for the sake of simplicity.

Experimental Study of Airfoil Aerodynamic Behavior under Oscillating Motion in Ground Effect [PDF]
When a flying vehicle approaches a water or land surface, it induces changes in the fluid flow field pattern known as the "ground effect." This research analyzes the ground effect phenomenon, exploring its impact on aerodynamic coefficients and flow ...
