 In acoustic phonetics, striations are vertical bands on a spectrogram associated with pulses of the vocal folds when producing voiced periodic sounds. Striations can be found in certain glasses. These have been caused by turbulent flow during teeming (pouring) of the glass. Striations can be observed in clouds. See Barber's pole. Ballistic fingerprinting
