Electrical circuits representing the (A) four‐element Windkessel model (4WK) and (B) three‐element Windkessel model (3WK). The elements in these electrical circuits are inertance (L), proximal resistance (R), total arterial compliance (C), and distal resistance (R d). State variables are blood pressure (P) and blood flow (Q).
