The 'elements' fit in the formed quadrants. Going clockwise you
have in the lower left an inductor. Upper left is the resistor and
upper right is the capacitor. The lower right is either 'missing'
or a 'memsistor'.

Its a "flux capacitor"!

It might also be modeled by a battery or a motor. Instead of *dissipating*
power as voltage and current (resistor), it *stores* power in the form of
flux and charge, either by chemical reaction or by rotational inertia.
