What are Petapascal and Kip-force square inch

Definition of Petapascal

A Petapascal (PPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI) equivalent to one quadrillion Pascals. It represents an extremely high-pressure value used in scientific contexts to measure stresses within the Earth's crust or in materials science, where immense pressures are encountered.

Definition of Kip-force square inch

A Kip-force per square inch (ksi) is a unit of pressure commonly used in the engineering and construction industries in the United States. It is equivalent to one thousand pounds-force per square inch, measuring the intensity of pressure applied by a kip-force (a force of 1,000 pounds) on a one-square-inch area.
