Pressure dynamics make vocal folds close faster than they open
Evidence
A consequence of the way the vocal folds vibrate with the pressure variation as air curves around the vocal folds is that the folds are accelerated together to close far more rapidly than they open. — David M. Howard, Jamie Angus, Acoustics and Psychoacoustics, 1326
