2. Decompression (diving) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompression_(diving)

   Decompression theory is the study and modelling of the transfer of the inert gas component of breathing gases from the gas in the lungs to the tissues of the diver and back during exposure to variations in ambient pressure. In the case of underwater diving and compressed air work, this mostly involves ambient pressures greater than the local ...

   Decompression theory is the study and modelling of the transfer of the inert gas component of breathing gases from the gas in the lungs to the tissues and back during exposure to variations in ambient pressure. In the case of underwater diving and compressed air work, this mostly involves ambient pressures greater than the local surface ...

   Haldane's Decompression Tables I and II. Haldane's decompression model is a mathematical model for decompression to sea level atmospheric pressure of divers breathing compressed air at ambient pressure that was proposed in 1908 by the Scottish physiologist, John Scott Haldane (2 May 1860 – 14/15 March 1936), [1] who was also famous for ...

5. Decompression practice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompression_practice

   Basic decompression theory and use of decompression tables is part of the theory component of training for commercial divers, [113] and dive planning based on decompression tables, and the practice and field management of decompression is a significant part of the work of the diving supervisor. [20] [8]

   BSAC nitrox decompression tables The PADI Nitrox tables are laid out in what has become a common format for no-stop recreational tables. Dive tables or decompression tables are tabulated data, often in the form of printed cards or booklets, that allow divers to determine a decompression schedule for a given dive profile and breathing gas.

   These tables were based on the 1956 US Navy tables and the no-decompression limits recommended by Bruce Bassett. [40] Changes were also made to the table rules and decompression requirements: [40] Ascent rate of 10 m per minute. A safety stop of 3 to 5 minutes at 3 to 5 metres is recommended where possible for all dives deeper than 9 m.
