Kilopound Per Square Inch (abbreviations: ksi, or kips/in2): is a unit of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force of one kilopound-force applied to an area of one square inch.
Tonne Per Meter Cube (abbreviations: t/m2, or tpm2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength interms of tonne per meter cube.
How to Convert Kilopounds Per Square Inches to Tonnes Per Meters Cube
Example: How many tonnes per meters cube are equivalent to 90.88 kilopounds per square inches?
As;
1 kilopounds per square inches = 689.4744825494 tonnes per meters cube
90.88 kilopounds per square inches = Y tonnes per meters cube
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 90.88 times 689.4744825494 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 90.88 * 689.4744825494 / 1 = 62659.440974089 tonnes per meters cube
Answer is: 62659.440974089 tonnes per meters cube are equivalent to 90.88 kilopounds per square inches.
