What are Kip-force per square inch and Terapascal

Definition of Kip-force per square inch

Kip-force per square inch (ksi) is a unit of pressure. It represents the amount of force in kips (1 kip = 1000 pounds-force) applied over one square inch of area. This measurement is commonly used in engineering and construction to express large pressure values in a compact form.

Definition of Terapascal

A Terapascal (TP) is an extremely high unit of pressure in the metric system. It is equivalent to one trillion pascals. One pascal is defined as one newton of force applied over an area of one square meter. Terapascals are used in scientific contexts to describe immense pressures, such as those found deep within the Earth or in certain industrial processes.
