摘要：
This paper presents a synopsis of fractional calculus tools for characterising respiratory mechanics. A discussion on power law impedance, viscoelasticity and tissue heterogeneity is made based on morphological and structural properties of lungs. Although targeted towards respiratory system applications, these tools can serve as a basis for modelling other biological structures as well. The paper underlines the importance of characterising the viscoelastic properties of the respiratory tissue and its time-varying properties as a function of disease progress. Perspectives are suggested for developing models able to mimic disease progression and understand treatment effects for better therapeutic management. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
