  2. Saturation diving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_diving

    Excursions may be upward or downward from the storage depth, and the allowed depth change may be the same in both directions, or sometimes slightly less upward than downward. Excursion limits are generally based on a 6 to 8 hour time limit, as this is the standard time limit for a diving shift. [40]

  3. Decompression practice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompression_practice

    The "no-stop limit", or "no-decompression limit" (NDL), is the time interval that a diver may theoretically spend at a given depth without having to perform any decompression stops while surfacing. The NDL helps divers plan dives so that they can stay at a given depth for a limited time and then ascend without stopping while still avoiding an ...

  4. Ascending and descending (diving) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascending_and_descending...

    Freedivers are less limited by equipment, and in extreme events may use heavy ballast to accelerate descent, and an inflatable lift bag to accelerate ascent, as they do not normally stay under pressure long enough to be affected by decompression issues. Atmospheric pressure suit divers are physiologically unaffected by the external pressure.

  5. Market order vs. limit order: How they differ and which type ...

    A limit order will not shift the market the way a market order might. The downsides to limit orders can be relatively modest: You may have to wait and wait for your price.

  6. Interchange of limiting operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interchange_of_limiting...

    Examples abound, one of the simplest being that for a double sequence a m,n: it is not necessarily the case that the operations of taking the limits as m → ∞ and as n → ∞ can be freely interchanged. [4] For example take a m,n = 2 m − n. in which taking the limit first with respect to n gives 0, and with respect to m gives ∞.

  7. Filter design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filter_design

    Any filter operating in real time (the filter response only depends on the current and past inputs) must be causal. If the design process yields a noncausal filter, the resulting filter can be made causal by introducing an appropriate time-shift (or delay). Filters that do not operate in real time (e.g. for image processing) can be non-causal.

  8. Technical diving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_diving

    Technical diver during a decompression stop. There is some professional disagreement as to what exactly technical diving encompasses. [10] [11] [12] It is an arbitrary distinction, and the line has been drawn in different places by different organisations, and has shifted on a few occasions.

  9. Planning fallacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planning_fallacy

    The planning fallacy is a phenomenon in which predictions about how much time will be needed to complete a future task display an optimism bias and underestimate the time needed. This phenomenon sometimes occurs regardless of the individual's knowledge that past tasks of a similar nature have taken longer to complete than generally planned.
