don’t expect here too much: The diffusion based Buehmann model that we run does 
not see that. For it, staying 10 min at 15m and then 10min at 5m has pretty 
much the same effect than oscillating at high frequency between the two depths 
for 20min.

The bad effects from yoyo diving are really coming from bubbles (not covered by 
Buehlmann) than from diffusion: In very ascend, you grow the bubbles (in the 
sense of: increase the number of molecules per bubble) with gas from the 
tissues then upon descending again you compress the bubble (with Boyle) so it 
fits through the bubble filter that your lung is and in the next round puts 
again more gas in.

Looking at the profiles you sent makes me think that your friend put serious 
stress on his body to say the least. I guess he feels really tired after a day 
of diving like that. That’s the bubbles. I would seriously try to significantly 
limit the ascent and descent speeds even in training dives and if the diving 
pupils cannot hold that not let them go deeper than just a few meters (3-5).

Just my $.02
Robert
