Microbar
A microbar (µbar) is a unit of pressure equal to one millionth of a bar, where 1 bar equals 100,000 pascals.
History/Origin
The microbar was introduced as a subunit of the bar to measure very low pressures, particularly in meteorology and vacuum technology, gaining usage in the 20th century as precision pressure measurements became more common.
Current Use
Today, the microbar is used primarily in meteorology for measuring atmospheric pressure variations and in scientific research requiring precise low-pressure measurements.
Kip-Force/square Inch
Kip-force per square inch (kipf/in^2) is a unit of pressure representing the force of one kip applied over an area of one square inch.
History/Origin
The kip-force is a unit of force used primarily in the United States, especially in engineering contexts, where it is equal to 1,000 pounds-force. The unit kip-force per square inch has been used in structural engineering to measure stress and pressure in materials and structures.
Current Use
Today, kipf/in^2 is primarily used in the United States within structural engineering and material testing to specify stress levels, though the SI unit Pascal is more common internationally.
