Download or read book Underwater Physiology written by C. J. Lambertsen and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underwater Physiology is a collection of papers that deals with the physiologically limiting effects of undersea, high pressure exposure ranging from fundamental biological reactions, through integration of physiological stresses, and to limits actually experienced in deep diving. Papers discuss oxygen, the mechanisms of toxicity, and the effects of oxygen on cells and systems such as its pathological and physiological influences in the neurosensory ocular tissue. Other papers discuss the physical effects of pressure and gases on cellular function, protein structure, and the possibility of alleviating symptoms through the administration of drugs. Tests in mice show that various gases exhibit qualitative and semi-quantitative differences in the characteristics of sickness, reactions to hypoxia, and the time before the onset of symptoms. A computer, programmed for nonlinear gas transfer and other variables, running in real time can compute directly from the breathing mixture and provide a real time solution to decompression sickness under various conditions. A combined therapeutic approach, recompression and dextran (an effective lipemic clearing agent) should be capable of treating decompression sickness in humans. Other papers investigate the influence of inert gases and pressure on the central nervous system, as well as, situations in undersea and manned chamber operations. This collection can prove valuable for physiologists, biochemists, cellular biologists, and researchers involved in deep sea diving.

Download or read book Life Support Systems Design written by Marshall L. Nuckols and published by Pearson Learning Solutions. This book was released on 1996 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether in freezing arctic tundra or blazing deserts, human beings have been figuring out how to adapt to hostile environments for centuries. New challenges emerge, however, as we venture to places where we are truly unable to exist without technology. When it comes to surviving underwater, a thorough knowledge of human physiology must be combined with a firm grasp of engineering principles, and Life Support Systems Design provides the student with an extensive grounding in both. A reference text for any beginning life support systems engineer, it also serves as a refresher course for more experienced divers. The text particularly emphasizes the effects of hyperbaric exposures on the diver's ability to function, but it also explores underwater physics, including the transport of light, heat, and gases, in detail. It reviews the practical technological aspects of life support system engineering, such as gas storage and delivery systems, and environmental control design. Finally, once the textbook has been absorbed, the authors encourage the student to design a life support system for a specified application. Armed with the knowledge gained from Life Support Systems Design, it seems like a project any student would ace.
