Pound-Force/square Inch
Pound-force per square inch (lbf/in^2) is a unit of pressure representing the force of one pound-force applied over an area of one square inch.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the Imperial system and became widely used in the United States for measuring pressure, especially in engineering and tire pressure contexts.
Current Use
Today, lbf/in^2, commonly known as psi, is still used in various fields such as automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications to measure pressure.
Exapascal
An exapascal (EPa) is a unit of pressure equal to 10^18 pascals, used to measure extremely high pressures.
History/Origin
The exapascal was introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) prefixes to represent very large pressure values, primarily in scientific and engineering contexts involving high-pressure phenomena.
Current Use
The exapascal is mainly used in fields such as geophysics, astrophysics, and high-pressure physics to describe immense pressures found in planetary interiors, stellar environments, and experimental high-pressure research.
