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 diffi cult 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).
