I have posted this question in Tech forum earlier, but it really belongs here:
Given any multi-level deco schedule and insufficient gas to complete all required stops, is there a common algorythm of minimizing the damage or will it depend on a particular mix/profile situation?
An argument i recently had revolved around 2 choices: either complete deeper stops and skip the shallow ones, or shorten all stops proportionally. The first choice seems intuitively better, as we offgas faster tissues that would probably do more rapid damage, and it gives a choice of immediate recompression, if there's more gas available on the surface. Howerev, i would love to hear a more scientific opinion.
Please do not hijack this thread by saying anything about proper gas planning
bsbd!
