Dear colleagues, my topic is about modeling of adiabatic shape bands formation, an attempt to describe by this method high explosive response to low velocity and mechanical insults. This is outline of my talk. First, we describe high explosive violent reaction problem, then propose basic mechanism of this phenomena, then introduce method, which is the most convenient to model and then show the results of simulation. Safety of different devices, which contain high explosive of propellant is determined in many aspects by chemical reactions initiated by impact on high explosive with different velocities. For high velocities of impactor, there are many different models that is used in engineering practice, but for low velocity of impactor or to which pressure in material is less than 1 gPa and duration of this process is about 10 to 100 microseconds. There are few of such models. Here on figure, some experimental techniques for testing high explosive response to low velocity mechanical insults are shown. Some researchers consider adiabatic shape bands formation during shear loading on high explosive as the main mechanism of the non-homogeneous high temperature heating, which leads to detonation. There are several phenomenological models for describing these processes. The main weakness of those models is the usage of a number of poorly defined parameters, high sensitivities to their variations and sensitivity to mesh size. For clarifying physical processes, we have to obtain the non-homogeneous pattern of high explosive heating explicitly. On this picture, different crystalline defects are shown which affect on elastoplastic behavior of material. These defects have a very different spatial and temporal scales and for their behavior, modeling different methods are used, such as molecular dynamics, discrete dislocation dynamics and finite element method. And there is a big problem of accounting for all these defects on macroscopic sample behavior. For accurate calculation of mutual interaction between high explosive grains, high explosive grains and plasticizer and to account the various plastic responses of individual grains, in particular dislocation dynamics inside grain, in modeling we have to choose a method which able to account those deformation processes. Three decades ago, the finite element method of crystal plasticity was proposed, with aim to model deformation process in metals and alloys, where anisotropic properties of material grains play a significant role in material response. Here we apply this method to consider deformation process in high explosive. In this method, deformation gradient decompose to factors, elastic and plastic. Plastic deformation rate is expressed in this form. Then in ILP we can use different terms for different plasticity mechanism. The dislocation and twinning terms are shown here. Crystal plasticity finite element method is usually used for modeling different metallurgical processes, where deformation rate is very low. It allows to consider thermal activation regime of dislocation motion only. But in our processes, deformation rate is from 10 power 4 to maybe 10 power 8 inverse seconds, so we have to consider for non-drug regime also. We use it in the form from this article. But for high explosive, such as HMX, it's octogen-based explosive. Dislocation motion parameters are completely lacking, and anisotropic elastic properties for HMX are different in several times in different articles. So we have to use a phenomenological constitutive model for dislocation motion, shear rate to receive at least qualitative results. We account for plastic dissipation and heating due to it, and we use the Arrhenius law for burn rate calculation. Here typical simulation setup for crystal plasticity finite element method are shown. First we mesh microscopic sample into a set of finite elements. Usually we use solid finite elements with 8 computational nodes. In each node we assign 10 randomly oriented grains. For each grain we applied a model described above. And then in order to obtain macroscopic deformation, we average a plastic response of all material grains in each computational node by simple iso strain method which assumes equal deformation of each grain. This model was implemented by using Dusseldorf advanced material simulation kit in LSDyna finite element code, and we simulated test experiment. HMX cylinder deformed under motion of its upper plane, which with some extent corresponds to experiment carried out in Russian Research Institute of Experimental Physics in Sarov. And the simulation result corresponds to experimental data. Here the temperature field and burn rate field are shown at force microsecond after applying upper plane motion. In conclusion, the crystal plasticity finite element method was used for direct mesoscopic modeling of shear bands generation in HE explosive with randomly oriented grains. We demonstrated that the process of heating and ignition in HMX is initiated by plastic deformation in shear bands, and the obtained ignition time is in good agreement with available experiment. Thank you for your attention. Mesoscopic, we use a constitutive equation like this in each grain. And in each grain then assumes two computational nodes in solid element. For grain this, it's about several microns in length. Sample is about one centimeter.


Hey, welcome to this week's vlog. It's Monday, January 3rd, and I have the flight got canceled, so I'm gonna enjoy a couple more days of vacation, but I am already submitting to a bunch of casting calls. I'm gonna enjoy the snow and relax. So our flight got canceled again, and then one more time, so today is Wednesday, and I have a self-tape, so I am filming it here in the guest bedroom. I did it. I filmed my audition. I have one other one where I'm supposed to just be doing things. I want to see my full body in action. I'm just going to put clothes in a suitcase. I think that'll be the best plan to do like my full body and in action. Well, I am super grateful that I have a tripod because without the tripod, it would be so annoying. I'm gonna go send them in. We finally made it onto an airplane. We're on our way home, and it's Thursday. I am finally home. Last night, I got three self-tape auditions requests from my agency. I need to do those today, and I just confirmed them yesterday, but I didn't work on them at all because we got home yesterday, and then we went grocery shopping, unpacked, all of that. And I actually also went to the library. One of the things that I want to do this year is read more books, and I've been wanting to read this while we snap for a while, and I'm also going to be reading... finish reading good people or normal people, and I'm not your perfect Mexican daughter, because I would love to be a part of that some way somehow. This other audition that is for a commercial, this is a casting office that has called me back lots, lots of times, and I don't think I've ever booked a job with them, but this one is right up my alley. It's for a tech company, and you are going to be... They basically want somebody to be able to look at a screen, a computer screen, and be friendly without somebody actually being there. And guess what? I do this on YouTube all of the time. Sometimes successfully, sometimes not, but it's just like introducing myself and talking about my acting experience. So that's going to be right up my alley. Oh my gosh, please, can I book this job? So this is for a tech company in the Bay Area, and it is from Kristen Beck Casting. I knew it was one of the offices that often calls me in for auditions, and why have I never booked a job for them? It's probably the client, they just don't see what they need in me, but this one is for a Latina, 31 to 39 year old office worker, which I'm 30, but I think I could play 31 just fine. And the pay rate is decent. And then I also want to see what other auditions I need to send because casting networks, at least in LA, they do a lot of posts where they give you a phrase or a paragraph or other longer sides and scenes of something that they just want you to go ahead and send in without them requesting it. I did a video about all of my auditions in 2021, and then I remembered I booked another job that I didn't put in there, so I really want to focus this year also on making sure that I'm tracking every single audition, and I'm gonna look through my audition tracker and see what else I would find helpful to track this year because it's always different, you know, just things will work differently for you, your needs, your wants. So I just read one of the auditions again, and it turns out this one is a print audition for a tech company in the Bay Area, and it is an office job employee, or like an office employee, so I decided to change into this shirt, and then I will audition like this. I'm about to do a test shot right now of my profile so I can make sure that they can see everything. My hair doesn't look crazy because this one they did ask for profiles and pictures of my hands, or to include my hands, it's a little too bright. That's better. Okay. Okay, now I'm gonna take a look at that. Okay, so you can see my bra, and I just fixed it, and then my hair was a little bit bunched up too. So fix that, and then I can do my slate and my audition. I'm in a red light, and I just realized I haven't driven in like, I don't know, three weeks, over three weeks, probably three and a half. It's been so long since I've driven and so long since I've gotten to Target. I'm so excited to just go, and I have a list of when I'm buying, of course, but I might get a little something else. There shouldn't be that many people there right now because it's like the middle of the day, and it's a Friday, so we'll see. I don't wanna be exposed to people right now. There's actually a lot more people here than I thought there was gonna be. I got what I needed, so I think I'm just gonna go, I'm not gonna shop around, which is a little sad, but at least I got what I needed. Okay, I lied. The organizing section, like this section that has all of the boxes, is in crowded, and I do really need to organize my kitchen, so I'm gonna take a few of these. I'm gonna take these two just to test them out because I think this is just what I need, but I might need more. But I don't wanna buy a bunch of them, so I have to come back and return them. I turned into a $98 trip. I'm gonna take my popcorn and my kombucha and take a little break. It's time to start finally memorizing the lines for that pilot audition that I have. So what I like to do to memorize lines as of right now, because this does change all of the time, just depending on when I hear about new things that I try out and then I see if it works for me. I like to write all of the lines that I have to say and then memorize them, just my lines. And then I'll start incorporating the other lines of whoever else is talking. So I'm gonna write them down right now and then my goal is going to be to have half of the lines memorized by tonight. It's the end of the day and I'm still working on memorizing the script for the pilot, but I wanted to close off this vlog and say one more thing. Si eres un actor que hablas español, ahorita están buscando Carla Hall casting in Instagram mexicanos que hablen español y ahorita están buscando nueve personajes.  I'm going to make a short about it just so more people can find out about it, but they're looking for like La Bruja del 71, Doña Florinda. I think they were looking for Professor Jirafales as well. They're looking for nine characters. Anyways, I'll talk more about that then, but I'm gonna close off this vlog. Thank you so much for watching and at the end of every video, I feature another channel and this is today's feature. If you would like to be featured on my next video, make sure that you're subscribed, like this video and leave me a comment.


Welcome back to Jurassic World of Alive! It has been, like, so long since we've done a video on this. Mainly because, well, not much has really changed in the game, if I gotta be honest. And, yeah, I've just been busy with, as you've probably seen on the channel, other games. Like, Jurassic World Evolution 2's DLC came out and then, like, I had to quickly cover 2-2 Trials and then once I covered that I was like, ooh, what to do with theory about this? So now, finally, I can get back to, you know, Jurassic World Alive or Jurassic World the game or something like that. And good news! We are, well, we're entering the winter season, as you can see here. It's all lovely and snowy, and they have added something new to the game. So, at the top of this bar you'll see Campaign, PvP Battles, and Easler Event. And it's that event that is completely different, because somebody messaged me. They said, are you enjoying the event? And I went, what event? So, if we click on this, apparently this is like the gyrosphere for Jurassic World the game where you would pick from a roster of dinosaurs and then go forth. But what I love about this is that they've made this all in 3D and it looks really cool. So I haven't touched it, I haven't seen anything about this and this is what today's video is gonna be about. Maybe we'll do some PvP as well, because that has changed a fair bit, I think, with some dinosaurs now. The game, or the update has been out long enough where people are now, like, using different dinosaurs to what, you know, my last video would be, but let's see what this is. So, we've got to end the mission objective, defeat three creatures. Opponents team is that. Okay, enter. Interesting that we've got health. Why do we have a valve in there? This is very odd, okay. So, does it mean that if I, do I carry on health? Oh, that's right, that's what the gyrosphere was, wasn't it? It was you had health and you had to get so far and then, you know, to the end of you try to. Ooh, this is interesting. Okay. Visit collection to evolve this creature. I want to add to team. Why would I want to evolve it? I think I need that for some sort of hybrid, so I don't want to evolve it. Or if evolving something. Oh, hey, new blood shows! Hey! I don't think I'm in this. I don't think so. So, I'm assuming this battle is in new blood shows. Yeah, there we go. Okay, don't know what happened there. I could hear some, like, crackling in the audio, so I'm hoping that. Maybe that was just my headphones, but just in case it wasn't. I might not have been. I'll do that. So, I mean, I'm assuming if we're going to carry on health through battles, we would want dinosaurs that are able to recover. Probably should have put in that other one. The one with the, like, the beaver teeth. Or, like, irritated looking one. Damn. Probably should have. Wait, did I? Oh, yeah, I regenerate health. Ah, I forgot about that. Okay, yeah. So, maybe probably should have started with the different roster of dinosaurs knowing that I need to get the health back. However, maybe tested a Corbinus that I actually have at level 30, and I think it still has boosts on it. Yeah, I'm taking any of them off. Hey, it's like I knew. Oh, I'm built for this. If only I had the Thilo, whatever. That is the Thilo something. Oh, this guy would be interesting.  Yeah, he's there. Yes. Another one did. And then I should have my rampage ready now. Oh, it is Magalena. Who could go for digging? Don't go for digging. Oh, thank you. Right, that's three times that. Oh, my goodness. There you have it. So, we didn't lose any health. Oh, no, we did. We lost like 100 nods. Oh, we get 25 points. So, I don't know what this is. Panthera Blathea. Is this what like panthera is based on? I think we're good. I mean, maybe we'll start hitting like level 30 crazies, you know, like actual, you know, dinosaurs that we would face in the PVPs and new blushers. At the moment, this is fairly okay. I've got something that goes through. Yeah, that's fine. That's fine. The counter, his, I think this slots counter doesn't go through armor. And that's fine because I've got like 45% armor. I could go for this one. Okay, he didn't go for it. If I got a crit, he's probably dead. No crit because I think it's like 5% and so it is. Yeah, so that I'm not too fussed about. And the good thing is I can just go for digging if I want to and I can just get even more health. Even more, more health left. But I think we can easily do that. Oh, the swap. Oh, brilliant. That's great. You can just give me more health. I'm not going to cleanse myself, I think. Oh, yes. This is good. I like this. Ooh. The Sora Sofa. Yes. Kill it.  Yeah, we'll save our rampage for the dire wolf because I've never faced up against the dire wolf. And it doesn't matter what this guy does, even if it's a high pounds like that because I think that reduces my attack. Because I'll be able to... I mean, superior vulnerability, what I cleanse myself of any damage reduction. I go through cloak. I slow down the opponent. That whole thing, superior vulnerability, was only put in the game to counter stuff like that. Hey, look. I get to see you. I haven't seen you in so long. I haven't seen you ever faced up against this thing. That even leveled mine up. Apparently, the new hybrid, that weird werewolf Halloween thing, loads of people are using that, or at least I hear in groups and stuff that it's like, oh, God, have you faced up against that thing? Everyone's got it. Ah, it's so annoying. So I haven't seen it yet. Maybe it's... I don't know. Maybe I've been lucky. We'll see. Everything has a counter, but apparently that's like a pinnacle. It's a bit like Dio's. Dio's a lovely thing to come up against. Whenever I see somebody using a Dio, I'm like, thank you. This makes my day. Okay. So I should have went for Dig in there. Actually, no. We've got full health now. Sweet. So we've made it to battle two, and we haven't lost a single dinosaur. Brilliant. Although we didn't get anything for that. Cool. Okay. All right. Level 25s now. I feel like that bird will have high pounds. Yeah. It's got like... It's got the prowl for dodge. It's got the high pounds to reduce attack. Honestly, this feels like Tester Corbin... Until I see something like a T-Rex, Tester Corbin has got this in the bag, I think. I think we can get all the way to the end. But this is fun. This is something different. If only you got incubators as well, then nobody would do the BVP. It'd be brilliant. But hey, it is what it is. Hopefully we get something cool for Christmas. I know that a couple of other games that I play are adding nice little things into the game for free for Christmas. So I'm hoping that maybe we get something similar in Drossel All Alive. You know, after having the rest of the year basically be how many microtransactions can you do to win? Hoping. I've got my fingers crossed that we can get something like that. We'll do that. Oh, they're swapping out. Okay, I mean, this is brilliant. I mean, it takes a little bit longer, I suppose, but I'm happy. I'm happy. It gives me health. And there... Oh, hello, Mr. Panda. Never faced up against you. You've got a lot of health things going on. I'm assuming you've got like a passive healing. So is this no apexes? I wonder what the entry was, actually, what you needed. Oh, you've got a heal. You've got a counter power heal. Okay, you don't heal much and you're dead because you're also vulnerable. And this is going to do like 2007 normally. Oh, you had armor. Okay, now what do we do here? Do we expect the high power? There's no priority, right? So we may as well just go for like instant death. Which does 5,500. Wow, it was almost half the last time we did that. The 2,700, I think. Yep.  I don't think it's got a lot of armor. Yeah, I didn't think so. Even though it was 1,800? Yeah. The shield! Okay, okay, that's fine. We're going to lose a little bit of health, but I'm happy with that. I don't think it has any priority. And wow, how much health have we lost? 609. We've lost like 17 health so far. Okay. Okay. This seems to be how you do it. Happy with that. I like how this is set in Nublar Shores. It's giving everybody an opportunity to, you know, try Nublar Shores. Okay, keep going, keep going. Yeah, like I don't see a reason why I would... Yeah, I'm like... There's no point in me putting in anything more than Testicobanus, really, because I'm not seeing anything that can really do a lot of killer damage to it. Yeah, I can't hit all of the flock creatures, but, you know, I go through dodge and I reduce my damage, so, or any damage that's been reduced to me. So, I think I'm good. This is the only one, yeah. That's the only thing that I'm a bit worried about is the bleed. What I can do, I mean, I do heal myself here, right? And I will take a big chunk. Oh, my God! And I do bleed next to him. The only problem is that he's also got rendering. So, even though I'm going to take a big... Okay. We're getting on the worry boat. That's because I climbed myself. So, hey, that's... Oh, no! Ah, this one has an armor. It goes through armor, and it's also got a stun. Ah, well, you know what? It doesn't even matter, because I think two hits of this and you're dead. You're going to get one good counteroff, which isn't so bad for you. Uh, 900. Okay, so this is the one. This battle feels like, okay, you're using test of coveness. Oh, you know. But, however, yeah, it is definitely dead. Does it cleanse itself with camouflage? We'll just get a dodge. Speed and dodge. Okay. I've reduced my attack. Why are you in camouflage? Why is that intimidating? Anyway, you're dead. So, I still got to worry about that thing, but I think I'm faster. Morris Intrepidus. Right. I probably could have went for shield here, but yeah, I'm just going to focus on killing them. I'm okay. We'll see. Oh, that's what I want to be worried about. Okay, it can't heal, so it's fine. It does have a challenging alert, which does 1,300. And if... Do I want to shield now? Let's shield. Let's shield, shall we? Yeah, let's go for a shield. He's probably going to do something that goes through it, but I'm wanting that 1,800 down. Yeah, okay. So, I'm nullifying what he's just done to us, I think. In fact, actually, we've got 500 extra plus 600 extra. So, yeah. It did basically like a tiny bit of damage. It will now have its devour. Oh, no, it won't. Oh, it can only do a pinning strike. And actually, it's given us help by doing that. Done like 500 damage, and we get 600 up. Yeah, this is good. And then, okay. Oh, right, right. You know, if the AI wasn't switching every two seconds, it might be in some trouble, especially with that maiming wound. It was like nothing I could do against that.  And I would have been in a pretty dire situation. However, it swapped twice. So, I've cleansed myself and healed myself twice for free. And there we go. We're now on... I kind of want to use something else now. This feels like cheating. Although that would like, on paper, that should have killed me, probably. But they swapped, so... We get a 40 years. Are we actually going to get enough to level it up? Yes, we will. Should we use the Thaloconix? We'll use that. Go on. We'll not use testicle over this first. We'll use Thaloconix. Because I feel like some people might have this level 30, because it has been good to use in some other air circumstances. And it can heal itself. So I think what we want to do here is for the crushing prowl, because this does have a counter, which slows us down. Can we take speed reduction? No. Okay, cool. So we'll do this, and then... we'll just go for the massive hit. Because that should be able to kill him. 3,570.  Or we could bleed and then also...  I'm bothering. Oh, the crit! Oh, if a card didn't increase my crit chance, it might have... Oh, I'm pretty sure I've done that then. Okay, and... Oh, this thing could be a bit deadly, though. Oh, if you have dinosaurs that can swap in and heal, though, that could be good. So there's the counter. Does it have a counter? I know it has, like, the triple hit, which is something to watch out for. Yeah, so we're not going to get much health back from that. Hmm... Damage over time? Oh, it's okay. Health, please. Health, please! Come on, then. Yay! Okay, that's terrible. Right, so now we can do distracting triple strike. Oh, it's a delay of... Yeah, so that's going to do attack 100 of three times. So what I was thinking would be interesting, right? Is if... Like, oh, good way to counter that. Like, it takes out flock creatures, right? That's the main purpose for this attack. Although it didn't do it. Okay. But what if the drawback was that a creature got to do its counter three times after every hit? So, you know, if it would be a good way to maybe, like, mind game somebody, like, you put this out against a flock creature and then they might think you're going to go for the triple strike, but then you don't do the triple strike. You know, I thought that would be quite interesting. And it would... It would mean that something like, um... Tyrano Ankylosaurus, you know, the hybrid, the unique hybrid that nobody uses anymore, that thing. It would mean that that would actually be pretty decent maybe. Because then it would do its counter three times. Ah, I don't know. Apparently not. Or something like referendum. Like, religious attack, religious attack, religious attack. Okay. And it's dead. Unless it's got its own... Oh, of course it has its own thing. Of course it has its own thing. Well, we'll just kill it next time. So here's me thinking, oh, we'll use that other thing. Yes! Easy. And then I've just switched back to Testicorminus. I mean, it would have died. I mean, in theory it should have died. Because it would have went for the triple strike. But he didn't. So maybe I've just got to be... Hmm. I don't know. Anyway, we've killed this deer. And then next turn, they are getting harder. But because Testicorminus, or mine anyway, is so, like, crazy good because it's max level and... You know what? I'm happy with you doing whatever because I think I'm even going to heal, like, 10 health from that. 6-2-3 damage against 6-6-3. Oh, okay. Healed 40 health from that. Thank you. And then, yeah, dead. Brilliant. Yeah, because I got boost on it and because it's max level. Kind of good. But what's interesting about this is that, you know, you're using different dinosaurs that you wouldn't normally use. As long as it's not the stuff that I normally, like, have. Like, what the PvP is. So, we got the bear. I don't know what the bear does. Does it have a counter? We want some... Yeah, maybe... Maybe we will. Maybe we will use the Thilo here against that turtle. It could be good depending if the turtle comes in first. Um... Is it a cooldown of 1 for its devouring rampage? No... Oh, sorry. Delay. That's fine.  Octalicellies. Okay. I mean, we're going to do a lot of damage right off the bat. I mean as well. Like... Yep. There we go. Now, it doesn't get a counter, but it does get a do... Oh! This is great! I can actually swap out now. Although, I think... No, it's Accelerate on the escape. I think it's Swap in... Swap in thing, isn't it? Yeah, Accelerate. Swap in heal. So, actually, we can... Does it have a priority? Oh, it has Dig in. Okay, yeah. Uh... We may have... That's intimidating! Yeah, it's dead. I think it's dead. Actually, we didn't go for our things. We might not be dead. And now it's faster! But look! We've got loads of health! Now, it does have shielding. I'm going to swap in to my... Oh! Okay, okay! Okay! That's actually not good for me. Because that's going to do a lot of damage swapping in already. Okay... This could be good! This is giving me a challenge now, this one! All right, all right! Oh, it's immune as well! Okay, well, I don't think it can... Increase its speed, I don't think so. Yeah, there's the counter. Okay, right. We're going to have to use... Oh, there it is. Defend shadowing and swap in savage. No! Okay, so I'm good. Right, so what we're going to have to do is we could just use the turtle as a way to... Gain XP. Now, he's got his massive attack which is going to do 2,500. So I'm... I'm kind of happy going for a dig in taunt because I know he can't do any damage to me.  He could do a lot of damage! Crushing prowl. It doesn't give speed. Right, that's all I wanted to know. Sweet, okay. He could have done 2,500 damage to me. There we go. There we go. So that's one dead. Yay! Carpet is there atop! Do you even do anything? What do you do? Oh, you do nothing. Okay, so you're basically just going to give me health. I mean, yeah, you have your like rampage but as long as I can maybe time a good shield for that, we're good. How much do you do? Basically, it's just every turn it's just going to give me health. Thank you! Alright, so what do you have next? Uh... Exposing the weak spot to you? Oh, no! Oh, wow. Oh, no, I'm terrified. Okay, this was good. If this guy wasn't here I might be in some trouble. Do we not have a winter one? Like a winter stage? We should have a special winter stage for these creatures because they're all like Senezawa creatures. Alright, there we go. Increase speed, get a shield and now he could do his big rampage but he doesn't. Okay. We get even more health. Looking good. Almost back to full. And now we can go for our big hit. Do a lot of damage. Uh, we are... Oh, there's his. Okay, this will do a lot of damage though. Yeah, 1,600. So basically 1,000 damage because we got a heal 600 anyway. Uh, okay. And then he could do his... He could have done his dick in, I think. He could have done... He could have. Okay, well he's dead anyway. Now, Accelerates a bit. And it's pretty much dead. Yes. So, all that happened this time I think we lost a little bit of health in the deer but we gained... Yeah, look at that, we gained 600. They should have like a plus or a minus but that would be more satisfying. And just sort of like slowly move. Oh, we're almost there. Okay, so 6... Oh, another 40. Oh... Oh, Monalorino. Wait, do I even get to use Monalorino? No! That's not fair. That's not a... What? Am I panthera thing? Oh, so that's what I need the bear for. Okay. It would be good just to unlock it at least to have it. That's the way I always see it. At least I've unlocked it. And 40. Oh, that's good. Here he is. Almost halfway. Just under halfway. Right, four more pops. Come on. Come on, can we get the bear? It would just be a good backup thing to have. And you know what? It's the game's making me get it because I wouldn't normally because right now in the meadow the bear isn't very good. There's too many counters that like... You need either flocks or you need something that could just do a bunch of damage. And the bear... I mean, yes, it's kind of like a tanky sort of creature but it really doesn't do much. I like how we don't get tens on these. The game knows. It's like, I can't really give me all tens because it'll be annoying. We'll do five pops of this. I got a lot of the deer. I don't have too much of the octo thing. Okay, so that's another two pops. What do we think? Do we think we can do in two? I think there's a chance, a very slim chance that we can get 30 each time. But it could be doable. Let's see. Oh! Of course. Of course. I called it in there. I said, oh, you don't get tens. There's the 10. Okay. So basically you can do one more pop. Oh, there's the 30. That would have been good. Okay, we're definitely going to get it next time. I'm pretty sure. So we'll fuse. Oh, fine. God. Is it a Zeratub? Is it a Zeratub? There's your 70. Why could I have got that on the thing? Why? Because it's rigged. That's why. Oh, right. Okay. Tester Corbinus onto the Octo. Nope. We need Tester Corbinus. Fuse it five times. Yep. 250. Okay. Perfect. Perfect. Two pops there. And then I think worse. We only need two. Max, we need two. I feel like, come on, the game's not going to give us 10 for the last one. There we go. Okay. Finally, after like how many months has this creature been out? We could finally create the Octova Salas or whatever it's called. Yes. So that's 4,800 health. Great. Okey-dokey. And just having another Apex unlocked is good. Because then we can use it for like a skill tournament if there arises one. So we'll put him in because chances are they will swap out. Oh, there it is. The new creature. Pantara. Right. So what do you do? Ah, I've got nothing to worry about. And evasive hunt. Okay. Okay. Oh, I like the fur. They've done fur really well in this game. I have to admit they've done good fur. Evasive hunt. Whoa. Okay. Oh, and it nullifies me as well. And it hits. And it actually does enough damage. Okay. So you know what? I'm just going to go through digging. Go for digging. And it doesn't matter really what he does because it's basically half. And with all of that, it just does a regular hit. Doesn't even go for its cunning rampage or anything. All right. So now we've got more health than we've ever had before. We're going to do a lot of damage. Not kill it though. There we go. Just have a count of which nullifies my speed, which is all right. Now is it going to go for the rampage? Oh, there it is. Cunning rampage, which means it reduces my attack. Okay. But that's an order crit as well. Oh, thank God I get the counter. All right. And then just going to do a regular. Oh, there it is. Big brain play. Big brain play. Love it. Love to see it. And oh, okay. All right. It does have one attack a bit worried about the definite impact. That's a bit early. He's probably going to stun me as well. Yeah, I'm not too good against that. Oh, okay. Okay. Yeah, sure. We'll just go for a ginormous hit. Do as much damage as we can. It'll probably go for shield. No, it doesn't. Okay. And it can't swap out. So it's definitely dead. That's the most amount of damage it's going to do. And it did do some damage. And then we'll just go for the regular. Oh, it's a group. Oh, and it's priority. Sorry. I meant to say it's a priority. It's a group. Oh, no. I guess we'll resign. Okay. Armored shield. Very good. And then we'll just go for this. Oh, the swap again.  It's not working in its favor. I would have been able to kill it in the other turn. Okay. Swapping heal and evasive. Well, that doesn't matter to me because I've got an attack going through your dodge. Yeah. This whole thing was designed by like, okay, test the core. This is the best thing in the world for this tournament. Make sure that people have it maxed up. Because if you don't, you're not going to be able to do it. Does it have anything to regain? I mean, it's, it's speed has been reduced to nothing. It doesn't even move. Okay. Okay. Some damage. Now you won't be able to swap out now. So that's good because otherwise you probably would and you'd want to give me more health. And at this point, all the creatures are now one hit away from dying. So there's no difference here. Like just, just, it's going to be a kill for each turn. Don't swap out. Don't, don't drag on the inevitable. Just get it over with, please. There's the model. All right. Do you think he's going to swap out? Please don't. I'll go for that one just in case. Oh, thank God. There we go. Are we over halfway? How many battles are there? We should have unlocked the panthera now though. Should have. Pantherably safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. Safe. I really feel like that that I mean they're my strongest creatures my best chances I may as well I like how the music cut out there music was like yeah no cool good one game glad to see you you're you're doing well the problem okay the problem with this game is that it's too maybe it's my devices or anyway it's it's too like processing heavy so oh my god a lot of damage oh I did please as well oh no maybe we can how much how much bleed is it though oh it's a lot oh god thank god I we can cleanse ourselves yes cleanse I probably will be able to kill me though oh don't do rending please don't do rending please don't do rending minor rending yeah I mean could I have switched out at all precise swap in strike I could have I could have okay okay right we're gonna have to switch to our next one the mammaliania which has no boost on it oh this this this doesn't bode very well he's probably gonna swap out as well yeah we just survived we would have had so much I should have been digging down but I don't know if I would have survived the the rendering which he should have went for not the regular attack but yes what was I saying I remember the same oh yeah it's it's too rendering heavy so like I can go outside and you know the game wants you to I mean I can do the game wants to go outside and dot dinosaurs right that's what it wants you to do but because this game is so like intense with its graphics and everything I can't really do that because the game just refuses to open unless I'm like connected to Wi-Fi or at least with my like where I am at the moment to my sin it just doesn't seem to work and it's it's so weird because I can open Pokemon go and it like opens in two seconds and I can play that outside but this for some reason just all lives like nah and I think because it's went so heavy into its battling and its graphics that's pretty much what draca will live wants you to do it just wants you to like be hooked up charging while connected to a Wi-Fi it's basically like a PC game or a console game I think are we do we have to restart is that gonna be a thing like is it possible to what if I level up a creature about level that would it be like oh okay you got some health although I can't do that with test openness because it's dead so that would make no difference so reduce that speed you can nullify the shield that's fine I guess we could go for that yeah it doesn't make a difference over the distracting will ah didn't see that is that 30% only 25% okay because I resisted it should have been 50% yes some damage that goes through I can't heal I can't heal though no I've lost my greatest hits yeah crafty that's fine you think he gets dodge for that no no dodge okay does he get anything for swapping out swapping dodge and nullify encounter that's fine the bay gets to you my best my last one anything actually doesn't even have a dig in I don't even think the bear has a dig in or does that do damage oh I thought it was going to damage that's a bucket yeah I don't even know I don't even I don't even know oh god he's one away from like winning oh I completely forgot about this oh oh no revenge okay I don't have any priority okay yep just do your revenge oh thank god okay okay we're gonna do this I mean really the price is only for panther and I don't think it's a hybrid it's like it's own creature all but the county he'll that's what we want yes please don't do much damage to me I'm happy with that I think I do get priority if it's the blast alert Arctic blast is a party it does something different but no I don't think it has priority okay oh that was bad that was bad I didn't realize that wasn't going to kill it oh ho ho ho ho ho please get a crit oh damn it it's vulnerable but that makes no difference I just won this one that just one it there you go alert Arctic blast it sounds like a Pokemon move but if you just took out the alert Arctic blast and they go yeah yeah maybe I oh it does say like plus maybe I can add extra health to them maybe okay that takes us to nine right so if I click on this maybe maybe there's a way to revive your creatures like if it costs books or something like that then it's up to you whether you want to do it but really all I'm getting from this is 96 extra DNA for the panther and I don't even know if I was very good but let's have a look I mean we did face up against it which was cool to see let's see I mean it's a bit like rexie yeah this is the only creature apart from rexie that's like a legendary and isn't a hybrid I think so debilitating strike evasive hunt which gives a hundred percent chance to dodge a hundred percent of the damage for one turn cunning rampage which I guess isn't so bad precise double strike so and it goes through so that's good against flocks definitely that's good and a what's this swift wounding swap in so you swap it in it doesn't attack that bypasses dodging increases its speed does the damage over time which is point 50% which is an alright amount for two turns and then you're unable to swap it's a hundred percent immune to stun which it needs to be rich oh that's good damage reduction and speed reduction it's resistant to very good whoo if you had this thing maxed and you put boosts on it the precise double strike like swapping in going through reducing speed and then having a precise double strike you could kill like comps or raptor so easy wow okay so I mean this is my team at the moment I've leveled up comps or raptor to level 30 I kind of I'm really kind of close to getting this to the next level we can do oh we only do a pop of five okay I thought maybe no maybe we do 10 but you know how to take us over so we got three pops of this we just need Gemina Titan DNA I think yeah that's pretty much it because the Germanitis I've got plenty of stegodas I can make that for days so we got two for six so we got three pops of this I need to get it oh come on I got two more pops well minimum we're gonna get the 50 but a hundred would be really good if we got like a 60 here or something decent that when we could get a 50 but we could get a 50 is doable it's a 20 okay okay I think I'm I'm not guaranteed a level up on the Germanitis what's it called Gemini is Gemini is Gemini I do ideas Gemini whatever that one so because it's an f apex I don't think I'm gonna get a 10 but it's very unlikely fingers crossed we don't get a 10 and what do we get 30 years I thought so and there it is to level 29 it's really like that's what you want like the level 30 takes ages to get to but an extra 400 help and basically a hundred extra attack oh that's really gonna help so now mighty a level up comes around to the level 30 we've leveled up Germanitis or Gemini D's and Gemini D's to level 29 I've leveled up the scorpion ones we've got the Draco ankle of seratops thing we got that leveled up to level 30 turn of alkali's level 28 that our next level ups are very far away and I don't think there's anything else I want to level up at the moment and I think I've done all the incubators that are out here we've got a few things going on yeah not really not much I think the scorpions out for today but that's pretty much gonna be as much as I can do of the frost assault I can't I mean I'm alright it's okay we'll do one battle and just see you know maybe we can see the level 29 genitis but you know what I'm probably not I'm not gonna hold my breath because whenever I want something in a battle it never shows up and I always get two of the rex's always without fail hey no I don't I don't get it sweet let's try this one then level 29 in gyrosphere station out oh against schoon I think this is gonna like I'm really good against schoonosaurus look at that 8700 I mean I would be more health on it if I was level 30 but the harder there's the counter which is gonna do 309 which still does a fair amount for 80% armor it's still a lot of damage and that seven okay maybe so and then I should be on a hundred percent right do I get 10% or is it 20% so 10% oh my god right now he really needs to do something this is very good people always tell me use this one zoom move cloak and speed increases and you attack I'm just gonna go for this one oh why would you why would you you're gonna do no doubt at this point like swap out man swap out I mean yeah you've reduced my attack a little bit I suppose but I think I'm resistant to us I got a hundred percent armor now I'm I think I reduce your speed would you I would use your own armor oh no yeah definitely quicker now although I actually saying that no not because he's got his own counter a thousand damage this makes no sense how does his counter go through my honor I've got oh maybe didn't okay okay oh right interesting I could have went from a big hit there should have should have went from a big hit here why is he getting crits we'll go for another harden here now we're down to 30% on so you know what he should be shouldn't have been able to do 2300 to me that shouldn't have happened I should have killed him I should be on 5000 help that was my own fault I don't I don't use Gemini this too much or you know I don't have the opportunity basically because I don't play this game too much gonna be honest like the bot like I think everyone has the same feeling and that's just the bowels are just annoying and so unfun yeah so we can't swap out because we'll take a big chunk of damage and we'll be pinned in so oh we're power tops we're getting power tops goes through armor if I remember correctly yeah well done well done what's good against part of like what can I set up against power tops because he got you can only go for heels he may just go for his regular it'll go for his normal hit here I think I don't think he'll go for his heel yeah I thought he would go for that that's kind of what I wanted him to do and then he's pretty much dead so that was that was kind of silly for him to do but hey I was kind of hoping he would yeah okay so that's power tops take care of two one up wait huh did I kill something oh I killed a spoon that's right and then we got this guy who I'm hope I'm expecting him to try and get the stun that's what he's gonna do he is gonna try and get the stun otherwise he's dead I don't know why 75% chances very low yeah well I mean he tried he tried to do it I don't know why maybe just didn't have anything good and here it comes and there you go well we do we beat the yellow octopus and we're getting closer to being back in new blushers we've enjoyed this video guys leave a like and until next time I'll see you could use later oh bye bye


It looks like any playground. Children enjoying themselves, joking around. But a closer look reveals bullying is occurring. Researchers used a hidden camera to videotape this scene. A group of boys tackles another boy to the ground. They repeatedly hit and kick him. He is in pain, but they don't let him get up. A bully even puts his foot on the chest of the boy on the ground. A group of girls is nearby, but they seemingly ignore the whole episode. According to the experts, bullying consists of repeated, aggressive behaviors directed by one or more children against another. Bullying occurs when there is an imbalance of power or strength. According to recent research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, 30% of students in sixth through tenth grade have been bullied, bullied others, or both with some frequency within a school term. This represents more than five and a half million young people. Stan Davis is a school counselor, author, and bullying prevention expert. He and other experts say bullying can be reduced and even prevented in some cases if counseling strategies that have form and structure are used over time with consistency. Davis has students fill out a think about it form where they answer questions about their possible bullying behavior. Then he discusses the answer with them. The process stresses self reflection, honesty, and accountability as Davis and students show us in this reenactment. Well you know what strikes me, Gabrielle, is you're really halfway there. You're halfway to taking some responsibility because this issue of her losing friends. And you sort of take responsibility here and then you take it back at the end. Yeah? How about, and also might, how about writing this a little more positively? In other words, you either think you hurt her or you think you didn't. Talking with a kid about what was wrong with their behavior or how they could do better is gonna have very little effect unless that kid knows if I continue on with my bullying behavior consequences are gonna happen to me. We've got to recognize that for many kids bullying is a very reinforcing, a very pleasurable activity and just saying you shouldn't do that has very little effect in counterweighting the pleasure that these kids take in hurting others. Once though there's a cost and a predictable cost to that behavior then kids are ready to think about their actions and think about what was wrong with their actions. If this was the whole story, would you be sitting here inside at lunch? I don't know, I guess not. Would you give it some more thought, please? I'm sure this is part of it. Experts say students who are bullied are more likely than their peers to experience low self-esteem, depression, and suicidal thoughts. Young people often do not report bullying incidents because of feelings of shame or embarrassment. Ted Feinberg is the assistant executive director of the National Association of School Psychologists. He and his colleagues know the symptoms a bullied student may exhibit. Initially children can be anxious, they can develop psychosomatic patterns, they don't want to go to school, they may have a reduction in their school performance indicators, but if it goes on for long periods of time what we have seen are youngsters and adolescents becoming so depressed, so unhappy, so feeling that there is a sense of hopelessness in their life that we find that there are many youngsters who consider things like suicide as a way of coping with the pain and discomfort. He says there may be serious consequences if bullying behavior is left unchecked. We know that bullies, if we look at them down the road, we know that many youngsters who engage in bullying behaviors have a higher percentage of likelihood that they're going to be involved in the criminal justice system by the time they're 21. In terms of what it does to the community, I think it impacts on a number of levels. It impacts on an individual level obviously with a person who's being bullied, it impacts on the classroom level because bullying behavior is typically observed by others and there's a span of folks who are both interested in the bullying and repulsed by it. It impacts on the school in that it changes the complexion, the tone, the feel, the culture if you will of the school and it invariably impacts on the community in that the community feels less safe, less secure, less focused. Current research would suggest that bullies have very strong sense of self-esteem and identity. They do lack a sense of empathy, they do lack a sense of concern. Bullies tend to grow up in homes where there's inconsistent discipline which means that kids don't learn and what I do is the cause of what happens to me.  Experts agree that in addition to working individually with children who bully and with children who are bullied, mental health professionals should be actively involved in efforts to prevent bullying. The most effective bullying prevention efforts are comprehensive and are focused on changing the social norms with respect to bullying. Counselors and other school-based mental health professionals have some really key roles in helping schools develop bullying prevention programs. First of all, they're likely to be the most highly trained in specifying and being clear about behavioral definitions of expectations and so they're going to be able to help the school define those expectations clearly. Second of all, they may have the most understanding of a school as a system so they'll be able to look at the systemic factors that may be encouraging, bullying or that on the other hand would encourage reporting and consistency. And the third is they're going to be able to either do or train others to do the kind of cognitive-behavioral interventions that I was modeling before. So they're very important resources in the process. One of the things that we talk about in our work with communities that have been impacted by crises of varying kinds is the notion of the conspiracy of silence among youngsters. And that relates to not wanting to snitch or to tattle tail or to reveal the information of this behavior that they are experiencing. Part of what we think is particularly important is to help children and teenagers realize that this conspiracy of silence does not serve them well, does not serve their friends and siblings well, does not serve their community well. But implicit in that is a notion of having to create within communities, within schools a culture and a climate that encourages students to come forth with this information so that the problem can be remedied.


The magic of getting together is very important for us. So the goal is very simple, let important conversations and the magic and unexpected happen. Having these in-person events is so, so important because that energy that we all create together when we share ideas, when we debate things, when we go a little bit deeper into some of the conversations around decentralization, privacy and a whole host of different topics, it's what makes this move forward and it's what makes this evolve. When people get together and talk and get to understand stuff deeper then it just helps generate new ideas as well and it helps Ethereum keep innovating you. I think this is like a really special energy that you don't see in a lot of places. You can go to an event and find people from all over the world with different skill sets, different interests and I think most importantly different ways of contributing to the protocol. A lot of relevant governors with a lot of DAO experience have gotten together here for many of them for the first time and they get to spend time together and this hopefully will catalyze processes that need like social bonds, social viscosity to come through. Invented forward to us just because we never see these people in real life so our community we're the biggest community of web three developers in the world. Just being able to see 165 projects come in a short amount of time in so many different categories from L2s, to NFTs, to DAOs, to core infrastructure and developer tooling, bringing those people together now and making sure that they feel like they have the support or they feel like getting the feeling that they belong is what these events are designed for. We have the opportunity to really rethink and reimagine how we interact financially, socially and from a digitally native perspective. Community feeling, the aspect of how we work together all around the world, not even seeing each other being in the same office, so that is very unique. The whole decentralized aspect applies fundamentally to the layer zero, to the community layer. I really don't want to forget the fundamentals that are powering this industry, privacy, ownership, self-sovereignty and I want to make sure that whatever we're building with Ethereum, with crypto, with web three that those fundamentals are of help and that users are truly empowered and own their keys, their data and that they're at the center of the future that we're building for financial freedom. We need to continue to figure out ways to make the protocol better, make it more scalable, make it more sustainable, more secure. All of these things are important for not just the protocol itself abstractly but for the people that use it. This event specifically is getting all of these layer one researchers and contributors to clients together and getting them on the same page in terms of what do we want to work on, what is important, where are we going next? So really staking is at soon to be at the core functionality of the entire Ethereum network and there are various things that we need to pay attention to with respect to keeping Ethereum decentralized. Ethereum can continue to grow and blossom as a platform that's more democratized, I think, than ever with L2s but only if the core principles are met. More people now understand the different trade-offs facing L2s and then more people can use this knowledge for the betterment of the L2s and the Ethereum ecosystem as a whole. Technology should just be developed in no way that's as open as possible and that people should have equal access to things. There's a lot of opportunity for the general public, for the cultural workforce, for the cultural community in general to actually maybe create alternatives to the systems that we currently have. It brings so much freedom to our lives and it's incredible for me to see the opportunities that Ethereum brings us. Ethereum is a shelling point for the hopeful. It's a place where activists and entrepreneurs and thoughtful people can come together and build new systems. We want to create new institutions that represent our values, upgrade democracy for web scale, build a financial system that's more oriented around our values. And Ethereum is a place where we have the tools and we have the ethos to make that happen. Take the green pill and on. I don't think there is another community out there in which people are shipping, innovating, and thinking at this pace and that's really exciting to be part of. If I have found someone who's into Ethereum, usually we can become friends and get along. It feels like home, a distributed home. The energy is huge and you can feel how passionate these people are. It will change the world. I'm very happy that the ETH community is more open.  It does so many amazing events around the world. The Ethereum community is full of very optimistic and forward-looking people and it's very refreshing. It is the most fun research community and it's the most intellectually rewarding and it's the most open. And I just love working in this community and contributing. Every time I contribute, I receive 10X what I put in and I think it's a wonderful feeling. This is an open community that's accepting of all people and that's really important to me because if you can accept all people and that they feel safe and then they can build and create things that are open for other people to also feel safe and create what they want. The Ethereum community has been really, really important to my growth and it will be important to the future growth of Herdale. This is above and beyond what we thought an event would be. For us, it's a part of giving back and it's a part of really seeing Ethereum grow and blockchain grow and really spread the idea of blockchain and Ethereum to the world. All the hard work we've put in over the past four years just really come to fruition in an event like this. See how happy students coming out of it are and how thankful they are, meeting up with alumni of our boot camps and them thanking us, us helping them get jobs. I really enjoy the decentralized values. It's a growing ecosystem worldwide, it's a growing community and I would love to be a part of it and I'm not a developer myself but this is a way for me to give back. It's really important to the Ethereum community to have these gatherings where we just come together with sort of the open mind to see what comes out of it. I think a lot of the biggest sort of innovations that have happened in the Ethereum space have happened by accident because people are just in the right place at the right time with the right energy. We need to talk to each other, we need to work together. As long as people can learn from each other and connect in real life, we haven't had that for so long.
