What are Kip-force square Inch and Newton square Millimeter

Definition of Kip-force square Inch

A Kip-force per square inch (ksi) is a unit of pressure used primarily in the United States. It is equivalent to a thousand pounds-force per square inch. This measurement is commonly utilized in materials science and engineering to express tensile strength, yield strength, and other stress-related properties of materials.

Definition of Newton square Millimeter

The Newton per square millimeter (N/mm²) is a unit of pressure in the metric system. It is defined as the pressure exerted by one Newton of force being applied to an area of one square millimeter. This unit is widely used in engineering and physics to quantify the stress, tensile strength, and pressure of materials.
