Yes.
Would be very interesting indeed -- this info needs folding into
diving on the envelope. Especially considering the stress.
We take Vits. exercise, and are in great shape here at/on
LANL D-team, and will soon wet test 400/30 with He on way up (not
nitrox switches that George uses). Our dives are almost 90% He
these days -- we avoid N2 as much as possible. We are highly DCI absent
on RGBM schedules. Bottom line -- deep stops are safe, cost effective,
and time saving. Even if "arbitrarily" built up from Haldane.
Can't accurately quantify such complex biochemistry, vascularity
and related phenomenon, but such in coarse grain deco planners enter thru
bub
distribution, perfusion dilatation, etc., and possibly oxygen sat. If you
have data linked to DCI, we might be able to say something?
