Pound-Force/Square Foot

The pound-force per square foot (lbf/ft²) is a unit of pressure in the US customary and imperial systems. It quantifies force per unit area and is commonly used in various engineering contexts. Mathematically: 1 psf = 47.88025898 Pa.

Origin:

The unit is derived from the pound-force (lbf), a unit of force in the US customary and imperial systems, and the square foot (ft²), a unit of area. The pound-force per square foot is used in contexts where pressures are relatively low.

Gigapascal

A gigapascal (GPa) is a unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 10⁹ pascals (Pa). A pascal is defined as one newton per square meter (N/m²). The gigapascal is used to measure very high pressures, such as those found in materials science and engineering, particularly in the study of the mechanical properties of materials.

Origin:

The term "gigapascal" combines the SI prefix "giga-", representing 10⁹, and the unit "pascal," named after Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician and physicist known for his contributions to the study of pressure and fluid mechanics. The prefix "giga-" comes from the Greek word γίγας (gígas), meaning "giant," and was adopted in 1960 to denote 10⁹, or one billion. The gigapascal is commonly used in scientific and engineering contexts where pressures are extremely high.
