overpressure Explanation: Overpressure must be positive and underpressure negative, so the redundancy in your text is simply confusing. https://books.google.co.uk/books?isbn=1930056087 Raymond M. Fish, Leslie Alexander Geddes, Charles F. Babbs - 2003 - Health & Fitness Both the positive (overpressure) and negative (underpressure) portions of pressure variations can contribute to injury. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2015-06-17 21:31:08 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes, that is interesting. Not my field, so I don't know whether that's how it would normally be expressed. |
