The Nissan Leaf (Japanese: 日産・リーフ, Nissan Rīfu), styled as LEAF, is a compact five-door hatchback battery electric vehicle (BEV) manufactured by Nissan. It was introduced in Japan and the United States in December 2010 and is currently in its second generation, introduced in October 2017.

The Leaf's range on a full charge has been increased gradually from 117 km (73 miles) to 364 km (226 miles) (EPA rated), due to the use of a larger battery pack along with several minor improvements.

Among other awards and recognition, the Leaf has won the 2010 Green Car Vision Award, the 2011 European Car of the Year, the 2011 World Car of the Year, and the 2011–2012 Car of the Year Japan.

Global sales totaled 500,000 Leafs by December 2020. As of September 2021, European sales totaled more than 208,000 units, U.S. sales over 161,000 units, and more than 150,000 in Japan.

The Leaf listed as the world's all-time top selling plug-in electric car through December 2019. The Tesla Model 3 surpassed the Leaf in early 2020 to become the all-time best selling electric car.

Post-dural-puncture headache (PDPH) is a complication of puncture of the dura mater (one of the membranes around the brain and spinal cord). The headache is severe and described as "searing and spreading like hot metal", involving the back and front of the head and spreading to the neck and shoulders, sometimes involving neck stiffness. It is exacerbated by movement and sitting or standing and is relieved to some degree by lying down. Nausea, vomiting, pain in arms and legs, hearing loss, tinnitus, vertigo, dizziness and paraesthesia of the scalp are also common.

PDPH is a common side effect of lumbar puncture and spinal anesthesia. Leakage of cerebrospinal fluid causes reduced fluid levels in the brain and spinal cord. Onset occurs within two days in 66% of cases and three days in 90%. It occurs so rarely immediately after puncture that other possible causes should be investigated when it does.

Using a pencil point rather than a cutting spinal needle decreases the risk. The size of the pencil point needle does not appear to make a difference. PDPH is estimated to occur in between 0.1% and 36% people following dural puncture.

New Katni Junction railway station (station code:- NKJ) railway station, located on the Katni–Bilaspur line, serves Katni in Madhya Pradesh. Administrative head of New Katni Junction is Area Railway Manager. It is basically a marshaling yard and there are two locomotive sheds, Katni Diesel Shed and New Katni Electric Shed. There are also a box depot which is used for repair work of freight wagons. It is located between two rivers Simraul and Bimraul expanded in about 5 km.

A small colonial goods yard exist at KMZ during the early 1950s. To keep pace with industrial development of the country, setting up of Bhiali & Rourkela Steel Plants and the discovery of huge stock of coal in central coalfields it was becoming necessary that infra structural facilities of quicker transportation should be developed. With this view, in mind, the Railway Board in 1956 decided to go in for construction of a Marshalling Yard in New Katni Junction at an estimated cost of Rs. 90 Lac. A huge Marshalling Yard complex was constructed between river Simraul & Bimraul and the same was opened for traffic in the morning of 19 January 1961.

Plasma transferred wire arc (PTWA) thermal spraying is a thermal spraying process that deposits a coating on the internal surface of a cylindrical surface, or external surface of any geometry. It is predominantly known for its use in coating the cylinder bores of an engine, enabling the use of aluminum engine blocks without the need for heavy cast iron sleeves. A single conductive wire is used as "feedstock" for the system. A supersonic plasma jet melts the wire, atomizes it and propels it onto the substrate. The plasma jet is formed by a transferred arc between a non-consumable cathode and the wire. After atomization, forced gas transports the stream of molten droplets onto the bore wall. The particles flatten when they impinge on the surface of the substrate, due to their high kinetic energy. The particles rapidly solidify upon contact and can form both crystalline and amorphous phases. There is also the possibility to produce multi-layer coatings. The stacked particles make up a highly wear-resistant coating. All conductive wires up to and including 0.0625" (1.6mm) can be used as feedstock material, including "cored" wires. PTWA can be used to apply a coating to the wear surface of engine or transmission components to replace a bushing or bearing. For example, using PTWA to coat the bearing surface of a connecting rod offers a number of benefits including reductions in weight, cost, friction potential, and stress in the connecting rod.

The inventors of PTWA received the 2009 IPO National Inventor of the Year award. This technology was initially patented and developed by inventors by Flame-Spray Industries, Inc. The technology was subsequently improved upon by Ford and Flame-Spray Industries. PTWA is currently in use by BMW for its high performance B58 and S58 engines (the B58 is also found in the 2020 Toyota Supra), Nissan in the Nissan GTR, Ford is implementing it in the new Mustang GT500 Shelby, Caterpillar and other manufacturers are using it for re-manufacturing.

Other applications for this process include the spraying of internal diameters of pipes. Any conductive wire can be used as the feedstock material, including "cored" wire. Refractory metals as well as low melt materials are easily deposited.

The recent use of PTWA by Nissan and Ford has been to apply a wear resistant coating on the internal surface of engine block cylinder bores. For hypoeutectic aluminum silicon alloy blocks, PTWA provides a great alternative to cast iron liners which are a higher cost and heavier. PTWA also delivers increased displacement in the same size engine package and a potential for better heat transfer.

PTWA coatings are also applied directly to cast iron engine blocks for re-manufacturing. PTWA coated test engines have been run for over 3 million combined miles of trouble free on-the-road performance. The technology is currently in use at a number of major production facilities around the world. It is also being used to coat worn parts, to make them like-new in re-manufacturing facilities.

The Royal Arsenal, Woolwich is an establishment on the south bank of the River Thames in Woolwich in south-east London, England, that was used for the manufacture of armaments and ammunition, proofing, and explosives research for the British armed forces. It was originally known as the Woolwich Warren, having begun on land previously used as a domestic warren in the grounds of a Tudor house, Tower Place. Much of the initial history of the site is linked with that of the Office of Ordnance, which purchased the Warren in the late 17th century in order to expand an earlier base at Gun Wharf in Woolwich Dockyard.

Over the next two centuries, as operations grew and innovations were pursued, the site expanded massively. At the time of the First World War the Arsenal covered 1,285 acres (520 ha) and employed close to 80,000 people. Thereafter its operations were scaled down. It finally closed as a factory in 1967 and the Ministry of Defence moved out in 1994. Today the area, so long a secret enclave, is open to the public and is being redeveloped for housing and community use.
