2. US Navy decompression models and tables - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/US_Navy_decompression...

   The US Navy has used several decompression models from which their published decompression tables and authorized diving computer algorithms have been derived. The original C&R tables used a classic multiple independent parallel compartment model based on the work of J.S.Haldane in England in the early 20th century, using a critical ratio exponential ingassing and outgassing model.

3. Decompression (diving) - Wikipedia

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

   What is commonly known as no-decompression diving, or more accurately no-stop decompression, relies on limiting ascent rate for avoidance of excessive bubble formation. [16] The procedures used for decompression depend on the mode of diving, the available equipment, the site and environment and the actual dive profile.

   NAUI's RGBM decompression tables were developed in 1997 exclusively for NAUI by Dr. Bruce Wienke and Tim O'Leary. [64] NAUI began publishing the only decompression manual with a full set of RGBM tables in 2000 for air, nitrox and trimix for both open and closed-circuit diving. Recreational RGBM no-calculation tables were published in 2001 ...

5. Decompression practice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompression_practice

   A "no-stop dive", also commonly but inaccurately referred to as a "no-decompression" dive is a dive that needs no decompression stops during the ascent according to the chosen algorithm or tables, [11] and relies on a controlled ascent rate for the elimination of excess inert gases. In effect, the diver is doing continuous decompression during ...

6. Haldane's decompression model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haldane's_decompression_model

   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 intrepid self-experimentation.

7. Varying Permeability Model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varying_Permeability_Model

   Decompression (diving) – Pressure reduction and its effects during ascent from depth; Decompression sickness – Disorder caused by dissolved gases forming bubbles in tissues; Decompression theory – Theoretical modelling of decompression physiology; Dive computer – Instrument to calculate decompression status in real time

8. Altitude diving - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altitude_diving

   Wienke proposed guidelines for decompression diving at altitude in 1993. [20] Egi and Brubakk reviewed various models for preparing tables for diving at altitude. [21] [22] Paulev and Zubieta have created a new conversion factor in order to make any sea-level dive table usable during high altitude diving in 2007. [23] [22]

9. Thalmann algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalmann_algorithm

   VVAL 18 is a deterministic model that utilizes the Naval Medical Research Institute Linear Exponential (NMRI LE1 PDA) data set for calculation of decompression schedules. . Phase two testing of the US Navy Diving Computer produced an acceptable algorithm with an expected maximum incidence of decompression sickness (DCS) less than 3.5% assuming that occurrence followed the binomial distribution ...
