Table 1 Parameters variability range used during sensitivity and calibration analysis. In details, in the first column are listed the parameter names, then in the second and fourth columns the variability ranges used for the sensitivity and calibration analyses, respectively. The third column reports the initial parameters configuration. Finally, the fifth column is the optimal configuration discovered in the calibration analysis such that the quadratic error w.r.t. the real data is minimized
