Cold shrinking. Cold shrinking is a process in motor vehicle bodyworks. Compared to hot shrinking, cold shrinking is a longer but nevertheless more preferred method most common especially with larger stretching areas. Cold shrinking is mostly done by use of a dolly hammer. The resulting rough surface is filled using a body filler or a body solder for a smoother finish.

Cold shrinking is a method of panel beating where heating is not done to the stretched panel. This method is mostly suitable for integral cars with integral body panels such as hatchbacks.

Automotive terminology
Hot shrinking. Hot shrinking is a process in car bodyworks. As the name suggests, heat will be involved, while "shrinking" is the process of straightening a metal section. This is a method of panel beating where a panel is first heated to make it softer. In most cases, heating will be done by use of the oxyacetylene flame.

Hot shrinking process
Locate the highest point of the panel, light the torch and heat the spot to a cherry red. Strike the area using a mallet around the heat spot. After several blows the sop will turn black, quench it immediately with a damp cloth. Repeat the process around the heated spot until the stretched part became fully shrinked.

Evoke Motorcycles. Evoke Motorcycles, (逸沃科（北京）科技有限公司), is a manufacturer of smart electric motorcycles. It was officially founded by Nathan Siy, Sebastian Chrobok and Chris Riether in 2014 in Beijing, China but have been in operation developing electric motorcycles since 2012. It currently is headquartered in the Yizhuang District, Beijing, China.
 
In June 2017, Evoke Motorcycles were chosen as one of the 5 most exciting products at CES Asia's Startup Park.

Model History 
The Urban S is an Italian inspired naked street bike (see types of motorcycles) that has a 100% electric drivetrain and a 200 km (125 mile) range. It is the first mass-produced Evoke bike available and was released in China in summer 2015 and is available in selected European countries in early 2018. When released, it will be the lowest cost, entry level electric motorcycle on the market with a $9499 MSRP. The Urban S is aimed at the new rider demographic but is also suitable for riders looking for a low maintenance environmentally friendly method of commuting.

A cafe racer style bike, the Urban Classic, was release at the EICMA Milan motorcycle expo 2017 and is now in production. 

An earlier electric bike was commissioned by the Indonesian police force in 2012 and 5 prototypes were produced.

Future Models 

Evoke currently has a Kruzer style bike in development, now known as the Evoke Motorcycles 6061, for a Q4 2018 release that will have more performance (120KW peak power), a longer range of around 400 km, ABS and an internally mounted water cooled motor. It will also come with a 7" touch screen as standard. There are more models scheduled for in the future but details are yet to be released.

Production 
In 2016, Evoke Motorcycles partnered with a division of Foxconn, to mass-produce their Urban S in Yizhuang, China. Evoke also have a deal with the SDI division of Samsung to supply battery cells. The Urban S is available to preorder as of 2017.

There are currently distributors for China and Turkey. Other distributors in other countries stopped to work with Evoke Motorcycles. The situation is unclear for now.

MyEvoke 
MyEvoke was a concept of riding a motorcycle without buying one, but the concept was abandoned. The user would pay an initial deposit for an Urban S then a monthly subscription. When the rider is running low on battery charge, they ride the bike to a swap station and swap the bike for a fresh one. This removes the hassle of charging, maintaining and insuring a motorcycle. The MyEvoke service will initially be released in Beijing then expand to other cities across China and Europe.

Mirage 35. The Mirage 35 is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by American Robert Perry and first built in 1983.

The Mirage 35 design was developed from the Mirage 33 of 1982.

Production
The boat was built by Mirage Yachts in Canada, starting in 1983, but it is now out of production.

Design

The Mirage 35 differs from the very similar Miarge 33 only in fitting a reverse transom, which adds  to the length overall, but does not affect the boat's other dimensions.

It is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass. It has a masthead sloop rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel. It displaces  and carries  of ballast.

The boat has a draft of  with the standard keel and mounts a Volvo diesel engine. The fuel tank holds  and the fresh water tank has a capacity of .

The boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 150 with a high of 156 and low of 144. It has a hull speed of hull speed of .

Operational history
In a review Michael McGoldrick wrote, "For all practical purposes, the Mirage 33 and 35 are the same boat. The water line, sail area, beam, draft, and interior layout of these two boats is identical. The main difference is that the Mirage 35 has a reverse transom, weighs a few hundred pounds more, and has an overall length that's two feet longer than the 33 foot model. The 35 footer is also supposed to have been built with a slightly nicer interior. These boats have a fairly large interior which featured 6' 5" (1.96m) of headroom. In their day, the beams of these boats would have been considered slightly wider than average, and this would have been especially true of the 33 foot model."

Kernel (neurotechnology company). HI, LLC, doing business as Kernel, is an American company that has developed a non-invasive neuroimaging technology. It is a privately held company headquartered in Los Angeles, California. The company was founded in 2016 by Bryan Johnson.

History 
Johnson founded Kernel in 2016 with a $54 million investment and began researching neuroprosthetics, devices implanted into the brain that mimic, substitute, or assist brain functions.

In May 2020, Kernel introduced two brain-activity monitoring devices, Flux and Flow. The Flow device can both see and record brain activity.

Kernel also introduced "Sound ID," a software that can tell what speech or song a person is listening to just from brain data. The company was featured in the 2020 documentary, I Am Human, about brain–machine interfaces. Kernel raised $53 million in 2020.

Kernel Flow 

Kernel Flow is a wearable time-domain functional near-infrared spectroscopy (TD-fNIRS) system. fNIRs uses infrared light to measure changes in the oxygenation of blood, which is a proxy for neural activity. Kernel Flow can achieve a 200 Hz sampling rate. The spatial resolution of f-NIRS is strongly limited by scattering, with most existing f-NIRS systems having resolutions > 2 cm.

Operations 
Kernel plans to read and write the underlying functions of the brain.

As of 2019, the company is researching neurological diseases and dysfunctions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, depression and anxiety. Kernel is one of several companies researching links between the human brain and computer interfaces, including Neuralink, Precision Neuroscience, Synchron, and Facebook. Kernel also offers neuroscience as a service to scientists and businesses, conducting subject testing at their office.
