What are Gigapascal and Millibar

Definition of Gigapascal

A Gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure within the International System of Units (SI). It represents one billion pascals. One pascal is defined as one newton per square meter. Hence, a Gigapascal equates to a substantial amount of pressure, typically used in scientific contexts to measure internal pressures within the Earth, material strengths in industrial processes, or the rigidity of construction materials.

Definition of Millibar

A Millibar (mbar) is a metric unit of pressure that is not part of the SI but is commonly used in meteorology and for atmospheric pressure reports. One Millibar is equivalent to one hectopascal (hPa), which is the same as 100 pascals in the SI system. Since standard atmospheric pressure is 1013.25 mbar/hPa, millibars provide a convenient measure for atmospheric variations and weather forecasting.

Conversion of Gigapascal to Millibar

1 GPa = 10,000,000 mbar
1 mbar = 0.0000001 GPa

Example 1:
convert 0.05 GPa to mbar:
0.05 GPa = 0.05 × 10,000,000 mbar = 500,000 mbar

Example 2:
convert 2 GPa to mbar:
2 GPa = 2 × 10,000,000 mbar = 20,000,000 mbar
