compartmental analysis

Mathematical process leading to a model of transport of a substance in terms of compartments and rate constants, usually taking the form C = Ae-αt + Be - βt… where each exponential term represents one compartment. C is the substance concentration; A, B, … are proportionality constants; α, β, … are rate constants; and t is time.
