Speaker consistency of coarticulatory gestures in clusters of labial and velar plosives

This article describes the changes in oral pressure during [pk] and [kp] sequences in asymmetrical [i:,u:] vowel contexts as well as in symmetrical [i:,u:,a:] contexts. Observed patterns are in part similar to those described in the litera-ture. Although speakers do exist who consistently use certain patterns in a given context, the patterns can also vary both within and across speakers.
