Hi,

I just started to play with subsurface some days ago. It seems that the ceiling / deco calculation is done by a Bühlmann ZHL-16b model. I think it would be nice to have an interface to switch between various deco model. Ok, currently, there is only one model, but I think people would be interested to be able to switch with other models. One usage would be to have a deco planner matching (more or less) the dive computer used.

What do you think about that ?

The Buhlmann approach is well defined and all the details of his models are explained in his papers and books. However, the more modern dual state models (="bubble models") are mostly proprietary and all the details have not been exposed. For insance the variable permiability model is totally proprietary and people actually make money from it (e.g. VPlanner). Therefore they do not wish to expose the details of these models. The RGBM is the best described and understood but even all its details have not been published.
Kind regards,
willem
