Data for several decompression models
of Haldane type, giving the tissue halftimes for Nitrogen
and the M-values (maximum tolerated partial pressure of Nitrogen
for surfacing).
Arguments
source
Bookspan (1995), page 16 (halftime data) and page 23 (M-values).
Details
Bookspan (1995) tabulates the parameters of several different
decompression models of the classical Haldane type.
The basic parameters for such a model are
[object Object],[object Object]
The data tabulated in Bookspan (1995, page 16) purportedly give the halftimes
for Haldane's original model, the original US Navy model,
the DSAT model (basis of PADI repetitive dive planner),
the OrcaEdge, MicroBrain and Aladin dive computers,
and the Buehlmann ZH-L12 model.
The data tabulated in Bookspan (1995, page 23) give the corresponding
M-values (in fsw) for the US Navy and DSAT models only.
These parameters are all contained in the dataset Bookspan.
