Uncontrolled decompression
Uncontrolled decompression is an unplanned drop in the pressure of a sealed system, such as an aircraft cabin or hyperbaric chamber, and typically results from human error, material fatigue, engineering failure, or impact, causing a pressure vessel to vent into its lower-pressure surroundings or fail to pressurize at all.

The decompression of a diver is the reduction in ambient pressure experienced during ascent from depth. It is also the process of elimination of dissolved inert gases from the diver's body, which occurs during the ascent, largely during pauses in the ascent known as decompression stops, and after surfacing, until the gas concentrations reach equilibrium.

Wikipedia
Uncontrolled decompression
An uncontrolled decompression is an undesired drop in the pressure of a sealed system, such as an aircraft cabin or hyperbaric chamber, that typically results from human error, structural failure, or impact, causing the pressurised vessel to vent into its surroundings or fail to pressurize at all.
Such decompression may be classed as explosive, rapid, or slow:
- Explosive decompression (ED) is violent and too fast for air to escape safely from the lungs and other air-filled cavities in the body such as the sinuses and eustachian tubes, typically resulting in severe to fatal barotrauma.
- Rapid decompression may be slow enough to allow cavities to vent but may still cause serious barotrauma or discomfort.
- Slow or gradual decompression occurs so slowly that it may not be sensed before hypoxia sets in.
Examples of use of explosive decompression
1. "If you just opened the compartment, there would be an explosive decompression.
2. A report by the Manila International Airport Authority quoting pilot John Francis Bartels said an initial investigation indicated there was an "explosive decompression." There were no details.
3. It is like standing on top of Mount Everest." More rapid decompression, also known as explosive decompression, causes an explosive noise.
