Recomputation of U. S. Navy Standard Air Decompression Tables,

Abstract

The U.S. Navy Standard Air Decompression tables were recomputed using the AUTODEC III computer program. Each dive schedule was computed taking into consideration all the standard Navy criteria for controlling decompression for a wide range of physiological variability seen in unacclimitized Naval divers working at a moderate level in cold water. The dive schedules are presented in a standard format with explanation of the considerations used in selecting computer instructions for the various major factors as they are applied for the computation of these schedules.
