What is Pressure?
Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to a surface per unit area: P = F / A. The SI unit is the pascal (Pa), equal to one newton per square metre (1 Pa = 1 N/m²). Practical applications use larger units: the bar (1 bar = 100,000 Pa, close to standard atmospheric pressure), atmosphere (atm) (1 atm = 101,325 Pa), and psi (pounds per square inch, used in the US for tire and gas pressures). Blood pressure is measured in mmHg (millimetres of mercury), also called torr.
What is Kip Force Per Square Inch?
The kip force per square inch (symbol: ksi) is a non-SI unit of pressure commonly used in structural engineering and material science. It represents the pressure exerted by one kip (1,000 pounds-force) acting on an area of one square inch. The ksi is widely used to express the yield strength, tensile strength, and compressive strength of steel, concrete, and other engineering materials.
One kip force per square inch is equal to 6,894,757.29 pascals, 6.89476 megapascals, 68.9476 bars, 1,000 pounds per square inch, and 68.0459 standard atmospheres. The ksi is the standard unit for reporting material strength in many engineering design codes.
What is Gigapascal?
The gigapascal (symbol: GPa) is an SI-derived unit of pressure equal to one billion (109) pascals. It is widely used in material science, structural engineering, mechanical engineering, and geology to express very high pressures and the elastic modulus of materials. The gigapascal uses the SI prefix giga, representing a factor of one billion.
One gigapascal is equal to 1,000,000,000 pascals, 1,000 megapascals, 1,000,000 kilopascals, 10,000 bars, and 145,037.738 pounds per square inch. The gigapascal is the standard unit for reporting the strength and stiffness of engineering materials.
