    22 MPa 3,200 psi Critical pressure of water 28 MPa 4,100 psi Overpressure caused by the bomb explosion during the Oklahoma City bombing [72] 40 MPa 5,800 psi Water pressure at the depth of the wreck of the Titanic: 69 MPa 10,000 psi Water pressure withstood by the DSV Shinkai 6500 in visiting ocean depths of > 6500 meters [73] 70 to 280 MPa

  3. Bar (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_(unit)

    The bar is a metric unit of pressure defined as 100,000 Pa (100 kPa), though not part of the International System of Units (SI). A pressure of 1 bar is slightly less than the current average atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level (approximately 1.013 bar).

    Useful range: from around 10 −4 Torr [21] (roughly 10 −2 Pa) to vacuums as high as 10 −6 Torr (0.1 mPa), 0.1 mPa is the lowest direct measurement of pressure that is possible with current technology.

  6. Vickers hardness test - Wikipedia

    If HV is first expressed in N/mm 2 (MPa), or otherwise by converting from kgf/mm 2, then the tensile strength (in MPa) of the material can be approximated as σ u ≈ HV/ c, where c is a constant determined by yield strength, Poisson's ratio, work-hardening exponent and geometrical factors – usually ranging between 2 and 4. [9]

  7. Normal shock tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_shock_tables

    The tables below have been calculated using a heat capacity ratio, , equal to 1.4. The upstream Mach number, M 1 {\displaystyle M_{1}} , begins at 1 and ends at 5. Although the tables could be extended over any range of Mach numbers, stopping at Mach 5 is typical since assuming γ {\displaystyle \gamma } to be 1.4 over the entire Mach number ...

    One Yuri equals 1 Pa⋅m 3 /kg or 1 N⋅m/kg, which is the breaking/yielding force per linear density of the cable under tension. [ 42 ] [ 43 ] A functional Earth space elevator would require a tether of 30–80 megaYuri (corresponding to 3100–8200 km of breaking length).

  9. Pound per square inch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_per_square_inch

    The conversion in SI units is 1 ksi = 6.895 MPa, or 1 MPa = 0.145 ksi. The megapound per square inch (Mpsi) is another multiple equal to a million psi. It is used in mechanics for the elastic modulus of materials, especially for metals. [5] The conversion in SI units is 1 Mpsi = 6.895 GPa, or 1 GPa = 0.145 Mpsi.
