The Bühlmann decompression algorithm is a mathematical model (algorithm) of the way in which inert gases enter and leave the human body as the ambient pressure changes.〔 It is used to create Bühlmann tables. These are decompression tables which allow divers to plan the depth and duration for dives and show decompression stops when necessary. The algorithm was developed by Swiss physician Dr. Albert A. Bühlmann, who did research into decompression theory at the Laboratory of Hyperbaric Physiology at the University Hospital in Zürich, Switzerland.〔〔 The results of Bühlmann's research that began in 1959 were published in a 1983 German book whose English translation was entitled Decompression-Decompression Sickness.〔 The book was regarded as the most complete public reference on decompression calculations and was used soon after in dive computer algorithms. ==Principles== Building on the previous work of John Scott Haldane and Robert Workman,〔〔 and working off funding from Shell Oil Company,〔 Bühlmann designed studies to establish the longest half-times of nitrogen and helium in human tissues.〔 These studies were confirmed by the ''Capshell'' experiments in the Mediterranean sea in 1966.〔〔 The naming convention he used to describe his algorithms, for example, ZH-L16, comes from Zürich (ZH), limits (L) and the number of tissue compartments or M-value sets used (16). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bühlmann decompression algorithm」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
