Abstract
A theoretical model is developed to study the dynamic response of the respiratory system using Weibel symmetric model based on the acoustic wave approach. Both rigid and compliant walls with rigid and compliant termination are investigated separately. For each case the response (normalised input impedance against prorogation frequency) is examined for occlusion at each generation from alveolar sacs up to the distal end of the trachea systematically.
