6.2. REDUCED GRADIENT BUBBLE MODEL, SUUNTO RGBM
The Reduced Gradient Bubble Model (RGBM) is a modern algorithm for tracking both dissolved and free gas in the tissues of divers performing a wide variety of maneuvers. Unlike the classical Haldane models, the RGBM can address a number of circumstances outside the range of just dissolved gas models by:
• monitoring continuous multiday diving
• tracking closely spaced repetitive diving
• accounting for diving deeper than previous dive
• regulating rapid ascents with high degrees of Doppler bubble formation
• incorporating consistency with real physical laws for gas kinetics
• taking a modern approach to a difficult problem.
The SUUNTO RGBM algorithm is developed in co-operation with SUUNTO
and Bruce R. Wienke. It is based both on laboratory experiments and diving
data (for example DAN's dive data).
