Lumped parameter model. Electrical circuit analog to the spring-and-dashpot model. R denotes the Newtonian airway resistance and C_stthe static compliance. R_veand C_veare the resistance and the compliance of the viscoelastic component, respectively. The respiratory airflow represents the input and the respiratory pressure P_rsthe output of the model.
