Poundals
A poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, equal to about 0.138 newtons. It is used in some engineering and physics applications to measure force in non-SI units.
Joules per Centimeter
Joule per centimeter (J/cm) is similar to joule per meter but is used when a finer unit of measurement is needed. It is also used to describe surface energy and tension in materials science.
