Yet another latex tidbit. Its purpose - remove italics from the units inside math mode.

in the header :

1: \newcommand{\unit}[1]{\ensuremath{\, \mathrm{#1}}}

in the body :

1: $\tau=0.0257\left[\unit{N\cdot m^{-2}}\right]$

If you want to take this approach to the very extreme, you could have the units of every var defined in the header :

1: \newcommand{\tauunit}{\unit{N}\cdot\unit{m}^{-2}}

And use them consistently without silly unit mistakes inside your manuscript :

1: $\tau=0.4\tauunit$
