Decompression waves are patterns of increasing pressure that occur when air is rapidly forced out of a confined space, typically during an explosion or rapid depressurization. These waves can cause damage to nearby structures and pose a threat to anyone in the vicinity due to the rapid changes in pressure.

What is a long and narrow shallow hollow between sound waves?

Sound waves are mechanical energy, and mechanical energy moves through matter in areas of compression and in areas of decompression (or, perhaps, rarefaction). The areas of compression are often spoken of as crests, and troughs speak to the areas of decompression in the medium through which the sound is propagating. The trough of a sound wave is the decompressed or rarefied medium.

What waves transfer energy in powerful shock waves?

In powerful shock waves, energy is mainly transferred through compressional waves, also known as longitudinal waves. These waves propagate by causing the particles of the medium to move parallel to the direction of the wave. This rapid compression and decompression of the medium result in the transfer of energy in the form of a shock wave.


What is decompression illness?

It is any illness that is related to a release of pressure from the body such as barotrauma .. baro (pressure) trauma (injury). It includes decompression sickness, but it is not limited to decompression sickness. It is also not limited to diving even though that is what is mostly thought of when discussing decompression illness or DCI.

What is the no decompression limit and how does it affect scuba diving?

The no decompression limit is the maximum amount of time a diver can spend at a certain depth without needing to make decompression stops during ascent. If a diver exceeds this limit, they risk developing decompression sickness, which can be serious or even fatal. It affects scuba diving by setting a safe time limit for dives at specific depths to prevent decompression illness.
