List of observable and physical properties needed for the models under the MB thin-shell and RB thick-shell approximations.

	MB thin-shell	RB thick-shell

L(Hβ)	C	C
I([O ii])/I(Hβ)	C	C
I( [O iii])/I(Hβ)	C	C
I([N ii])/I/Hα)	C	C
I([S ii])/I/Hα)	C	C
L(8 μm)	F	F
L(24 μm)	F	F
gas density	I	F
Q(H)	F	I
dust-to-gas ratio	F	I
abundances	I	I
SED	I	I
inner radius	I^a	I
outer radius	F	F
filling factor	F	I

Notes. During the iterative process, they are considered as free (no restriction in each iteration; F), constrained (the model searches a convergence to the expected values; C), and input (fixed values from the beginning; I).
