C is the monolayer composition, T is temperature, γm is the monolayer surface tension, c is the rate of monolayer collapse (varying values are separated by dash), A0 is the total monolayer area, Aordered is the area occupied by the ordered phase (LC or Lo) at which the rate of collapse changes, and Cordered is the fraction of lipids in the ordered phase (LC or Lo) in the monolayer at which the rate of collapse changes.
