    static javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Pressure> METER_OF_WATER_COLUMN
    A metre, centimetre or millimetre of water are less commonly used measures of pressure derived from pressure head.
    static javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Length> METRE
    The unit of length is the metre, defined by the distance, at 0°, between the axes of the
    two central lines marked on the bar of platinum–iridium kept at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures
    and declared Prototype of the metre by the 1st Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures,
    this bar being subject to standard atmospheric pressure and supported on two cylinders of at least one centimetre diameter, symmetrically placed in the same horizontal plane at a distance of 571 mm from each other.
    static javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Speed> METRE_PER_SECOND
    The standard unit for speed quantities (standard name m/s).
    static javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Power> PONCELET
    In 19th-century France there was as a unit of power, the poncelet, which was defined as the power required to raise a mass of 1 quintal (1 q = 100 kg) at a velocity of 1 m/s.
    The German or metric horsepower (PS, Pferdestärke) is arbitrarily selected to be three quarters thereof.
    static javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Force> POND
    In English contexts the unit of force is usually formed by simply appending the suffix "force" to the name of the unit of mass, thus gram-force (gf) or kilogram-force (kgf), which follows the tradition of pound-force (lbf).

    • METRE

      public static final javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Length> METRE
      The unit of length is the metre, defined by the distance, at 0°, between the axes of the
      two central lines marked on the bar of platinum–iridium kept at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures
      and declared Prototype of the metre by the 1st Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures,
      this bar being subject to standard atmospheric pressure and supported on two cylinders of at least one centimetre diameter, symmetrically placed in the same horizontal plane at a distance of 571 mm from each other.
    • HYL

      public static final javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Mass> HYL
      The hyl, metric slug (mug), or TME (German: technische Masseneinheit, lit. 'technical mass unit'), is the mass that accelerates at 1 m/s2 under a force of 1 kgf.[4] The hyl has also been used as the unit of mass in a metre–gram-force–second (mgfs) system.
    • TME

      public static final javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Mass> TME
      The TME (German: technische Masseneinheit, lit. 'technical mass unit'), is the mass that accelerates at 1 m/s2 under a force of 1 kgf.[4] The hyl has also been used as the unit of mass in a metre–gram-force–second (mgfs) system.
    • SECOND

      public static final javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Time> SECOND
      The SI base unit for duration quantities (standard name s). It is defined as the duration of 9,192,631,770 cycles of radiation corresponding to the transition between two hyperfine levels of the ground state of cesium (1967 Standard).
    • METRE_PER_SECOND

      public static final javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Speed> METRE_PER_SECOND
      The standard unit for speed quantities (standard name m/s).
    • KILOPOND_METRE

      public static final javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Energy> KILOPOND_METRE
      There is no dedicated name for the unit of energy, "metre" is simply appended to "kilopond", but usually the symbol of the kilopond-metre is written without the middle dot. 1 kp⋅m = gn kg⋅m = 9.806 65 kg⋅m2/s2 = 9.806 65 J
    • POND

      public static final javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Force> POND
      In English contexts the unit of force is usually formed by simply appending the suffix "force" to the name of the unit of mass, thus gram-force (gf) or kilogram-force (kgf), which follows the tradition of pound-force (lbf). In other, international, contexts the special name pond (p) or kilopond (kp) respectively is more frequent.
    • HORSEPOWER

      public static final javax.measure.Unit<javax.measure.quantity.Power> HORSEPOWER
      Horsepower (HP) is the name of several units of measurement of power. The most common definitions equal between 735.5 and 750 watts. Horsepower was originally defined to compare the output of steam engines with the power of draft horses. The unit was widely adopted to measure the output of piston engines, turbines, electric motors, and other machinery. The definition of the unit varied between geographical regions. Most countries now use the SI unit watt for measurement of power. With the implementation of the EU Directive 80/181/EEC on January 1, 2010, the use of horsepower in the EU is only permitted as supplementary unit.

      In 19th-century France there was as a unit of power, the poncelet, which was defined as the power required to raise a mass of 1 quintal (1 q = 100 kg) at a velocity of 1 m/s.
      The German or metric horsepower (PS, Pferdestärke) is arbitrarily selected to be three quarters thereof.

      1 pq = 1 qf⋅m/s = 100 kp⋅m/s = 100 × gn kg⋅m/s = 980.665 kg⋅m2/s3 = 0.980 665 kW

      The gravitational unit of pressure is the technical atmosphere (at). It is the gravitational force of one kilogram, i.e. 1 kgf, exerted on an area of one square centimetre. 1 at = 1 kp/cm2 = 10 000 × gn kg/m2 = 98 066.5 kg/(m⋅s2) = 98.066 5 kPa
