Re: Gradient Factor for Dummies

Kevin,

Thank you so much for this! This will be a great aide for teaching. It does bring up another question though, how do you teach M-values?

We used to just have people read Workman's CALCULATION OF DECOMPRESSION SCHEDULES FOR NITROGEN-OXYGEN AND HELIUM-OXYGEN DIVES. 1965. RRR ID: 3367, NEDU: AD0620879

Then we would run profiles through DecoPlanner and talk about the graphical analysis there.

A couple of days ago, I ran across this one.

Systematic Guide to Decompression Schedule Calculations.
Braithwaite, 1972
RRR ID: 3945, NEDU: AD075102
This one was written to make the calculations in the Workman report easier.

Any other ideas?
