Description

This brief provides a complete yet concise description of modern dive computers and their operations to�date in one source with coupled applications for added understanding. Basic diving principles are�detailed with practical computer implementations. Interrelated topics to diving protocols and�operational procedures are included. Tests, statistics and correlations of computer models with data are�underscored. The exposition also links phase mechanics to dissolved gases in modern decompression�theory with mathematical relationships and equations used in dive computer synthesis. Applications�focus upon and mimic dive computer operations within model implementations for added�understanding. This comprehensive resource includes a complete list of dive computers that are marketed and their�staging models, as well as a complete list of diveware marketed and their staging algorithms, linkage of�pertinent wet and dry tests to modern computer algorithms, a description of two basic computer models�with all constants and parameters, mathematical ansatz of on-the-fly risk for surfacing at any dive�depth, detailing of statistical techniques used to validate dive computers from data, and a description of�profile Data Banks for computer dive model correlations. The book will find an audience amongst computer scientists, doctors, underwater researchers,�engineers, physical and biosciences diving professionals, explorers, chamber technicians, physiologists�and technical and recreational divers.Typham this is the title: Understanding Modern Dive Computers and Operation Protocols, Models, Tests, Data, Risk and Applications
