Unit Information

Megapascal (MPa)

Definition

The megapascal (symbol: MPa) is a decimal multiple of the pascal. One MPa is equal to 1,000,000 pascals.

Current Use

The megapascal is commonly used in engineering and materials science to measure high pressures, such as structural stresses or the strength of materials like concrete and steel.

Millibar (mbar)

Definition

The millibar (symbol: mbar) is a metric unit of pressure equal to one-thousandth of a bar. It is exactly equal to 100 pascals (1 hectopascal).

Current Use

Millibars are primarily used in meteorology to report atmospheric pressure. Most weather maps use millibars to denote areas of high and low pressure.
