The function of pitching in Beetle's flight revealed by insect-wearable backpack by Fu, Fang, Li, Yao, Wang, Haitong, Li, Bing, Sato, Hirotaka

“…The study of insect flight orientation is important for investigating flapping-wing aerodynamics and designing bioinspired micro air vehicles (MAVs). Pitch orientation plays a vital role in flight control, which has been explored less than directional control. …”

Effects of music attrition on English-Mandarin Chinese bilinguals’ lexical tone perception and production in a foreign language by Toh, Xin Ru

“…To examine whether cognitive mechanisms for music and speech are domain-general or domain-specific, researchers have studied the effects of musical training on lexical tone pitch processing. However, few studies have studied the effects in the long-term and among tone language speakers. …”

Lights and sounds : effects of congruence and musical sophistication on auditory and visual perception by Aw, Justus Jinyue

“…They undertook a computer-based task where moving or non-moving visual stimuli were paired with audio stimuli that rose or fell in pitch, and were asked to make decisions on whether the visual stimuli moved and the direction of its movement. …”

Wetting transition of sessile and condensate droplets on copper-based superhydrophobic surfaces by Zhao, Yugang, Zhang, Hui, Wang, Wei, Yang, Chun

“…We show both theoretically and experimentally that sessile droplets on the surfaces of densely packed nano-asperities (pitch ∼120 nm) can remain in stable Cassie’s mode, while the wetting transition from Cassie’s mode to Wenzel’s mode occurs spontaneously on the surfaces of coarsely packed nano-asperities (pitch ∼300 nm). …”
