I apologize for using ksi here as Google believes it should not be used for gas pressures! So, for this post, ksi means 1000's of psi as measured with a pressure transducer.

Yes, this is a PSI measurement.
No, they do not directly correlate because you are measuring the deformation of a material(non-linear) to get a pressure measurement. . . .guess what. . .they're close!
I think I will asl Alliant, but since it is not published, I don't expect much.
