The myoelastic theory states that when the vocal cords are brought together and breath pressure is applied to them, the cords remain closed until the pressure beneath them — the subglottic pressure — is sufficient to push them apart, allowing air to escape and reducing the pressure enough for the muscle tension recoil to pull the folds back together again.

This theory states that the frequency of the vocal fold vibration is determined by the chronaxy of the recurrent nerve, and not by breath pressure or muscular tension.

For example, quantum strings have tension, much like regular strings made of twine ; this tension is considered a fundamental parameter of the theory.

He concluded that had they been produced they would have either disintegrated into smaller strings before ever reaching macroscopic scales ( in the case of Type I superstring theory ), they would always appear as boundaries of domain walls whose tension would force the strings to collapse rather than grow to cosmic scales ( in the context of Heterotic superstring theory ), or having a characteristic energy scale close to the Planck energy they would be produced before cosmological inflation and hence be diluted away with the expansion of the universe and not be observable.
