Yeah. All right, there she is. Hi guys, my next door to Fayetteville. So if you have any questions today Please just comment throughout the video and we'll be sure to answer those for you guys. Awesome. So HOT is closest to the Northwest Quad and Maple Garland Street little shopping area.  The pharmacy is in there. So if you get sick, you can send all your prescriptions over there A parking lot and then over in the Maple Hill communities, we have a club red, which is like a gas station without the gas kind of thing So they got snacks. There's also a freshener, which just smoothies and that you can use your phone So you'll get them at movement and they are only work through your own residence hall So you can't use your phone to get into Founders or Maple or wherever else you are So this is the little front entryway behind you is a little gaming station. So it's before we're playing pool right now There's also ping pong and then you can check out all the equipment you need to play these games on the front desk Which we'll see in a little bit. All you have to do is give them your student ID and you can check them out There's a TV behind there as well. So you can play music off of it. You can watch football, TV, whatever your heart desires But we'll head back here because behind this is the kitchen Who's winning? Is he going to cut? Oh, we're going to cut for him. I see, I see. So this is the Hots Kitchen. Every residence hall has a kitchen of some capacity. So this is the one in Hots You can also check out pots and pans and dishes and stuff from the front desk with your student ID So you don't have to bring those So behind Channing is actually their little convection oven that you can make cookies in or whatever There's a coffee pot. There's a full-size fridge Like the sign says, just make sure to label everything if it's yours And then, yeah, there's another microwave done here. See if you can make popcorn Lots of drawers and counter space looks like there's some snacks here So Hots does a lot of programming and anytime there's leftover food it's in the fridge or on the counter So there's usually snacks around Well that's good to know So now we're going to go head to the movie room So Hots is one of two residence halls on campus that has a theater in their residence hall This is one of my favorite spaces in Hots So there are movie theaters seating and there's comfy seating There are some bean bags over there. You can bring your own pillows or whatever Adjust the lighting for however you need So definitely a lot of white football games are shown in here Bachelor nights are really popular in here Harry Potter movie marathons or the Ring marathons There's kind of anything that's going on You don't have to necessarily reserve it But usually people just throw something in a group message It's like, hey, Harry Potter tonight at 7 What are you binging over this summer? So I actually haven't been watching a lot of TV But Stranger Things 2 and 3 Not a big bachelor fan but I know that's a big summer show And that's always on in here as well But I heard euphoria on HBO is really good Do you also have that? Absolutely Scam of Thrones was huge in here I know that's over now but that was a big deal Then we'll round the corner Next we'll head into the music room So Hots is really cool that it has a music room That comes with a little drum set and a piano And the cool thing about it is the only non-soundproof area Is this area right above the door So if you live above it, no worries you won't hear People drumming it to in the morning It's completely soundproof And you have piano, electric drums, actual drums You can bring your own instruments People have left sheet music If you want to start a band, I guess you could do that A college band? A college band, give you a room together So this is open and available for anyone to use We have what, about 12, 15 people tuned in? Tell us where you're from I'm from Texas, Channings from Arkansas And then I'm Cecily I don't know if we have anyone from the West Coast watching Alright, so as I said my name is Cecily I'm the CRE of the building Which means the coordinator for residence education I'm a full-time staff member who lives in the hall So I live in an apartment inside on the first floor And then my job is to supervise the RAs I provide guidance to residents Through whether it's programming, one-on-one interaction I help advise our Lead Hogs program So if we have anyone watching who's thinking about joining Lead Hogs Or has already joined, we're super excited We would love to have you It's a great way to get involved in HOTS We have a really strong Lead Hogs program So we can talk a little bit more about that later When we get to the room that we typically meet in I got my business degree My undergrad and my master's So if we have any business students, we can talk business So a little bit more about this space So this is the letter's room This room is used for many, many different purposes Because it can be used, these walls can collapse You can turn this into a closed space You can also open it up so that it's a Room to hold a program So we typically have people studying here during the normal days But then sometimes in the evenings we'll have Like we had a talent show last year And then we also had a student plan Their own program, it was a diversity panel A really, really cool program called Planting a Seed And the student organized it And we had like 60 people in this area Learning about diversity and inclusion And what that looks like in HOTS As you can see there are the big letters That's why we call it the letter's room And all people in the building Get to sign the letters when you come in During the first couple weeks You'll get to sign them and become a part of that And then we also, after we sign the letters We go to the pep rally That's a huge tradition in HOTS We get really, really fired up And like to win the spirit competition So bring your black clothes Because we'll probably dress in black And be excited So that's something they participate in When you get here They usually win too We have to win again Don't tell anyone else they'll see you I see we have someone from all over Yeah Cool Hello Nancy and Stephanie Thanks for watching Alright, so now we're on the patio I'm trying not to trip over This is just a great space to hang out Especially on the next day of work today It's not super hard on you Hey everybody, my name is Michelle King I'm the assistant director Of recruitment and path program And the honors college So I've probably seen Several of you out on the road You'll probably see me in the fall semester Out there recruiting you all here But like Dorsey said This is a great place to study And hang out It's also a great place for us To have one of our most popular events Here in Pots Hall So we do have In a bit called Professor and Pizza on the patio Where we do have professors That come over to Hots Want to monthly talk about Research opportunities As well as study abroad opportunities That students will be able to Take it and the job So it's a great place to do this And then amongst Professor and Pizza on the patio We have several other events That will host Throughout the school year as well So we'll have things Like

cream social That's pretty popular If you like to get some dessert And our really popular Gingerbread House competition Which will happen indoors With Hots But you'll get to build your teams And actually compete to see Who can win the gingerbread house competition So those are just some of the things That we'll do around Hots And we do have a graduate assistant For programming Her name is Heidi Begarin And she'll actually put on A lot of the programs That I'm mentioning to you all So we'll take a look Go back inside But these are just some of the things That we can do here On the patio And like the front door This door is fobbed as well So you really can't get in Without the fob So if you want another awesome Safety feature It just allows us to know Who is in and out Of the residence hall But this area Is just another little common space We have a fireplace Which is really cozy During the winter And then there's a little free library Back there Just take and leave books As you wish And then back over here Is the front desk So every residence hall Has a front desk That usually has an RA on duty Or a staff on duty There's also a 24-hour call line If you get locked out At 3 in the morning You can call someone They'll let you in your room You don't have to sleep on the floor It's okay But yeah So they're always there They're always there to help you This is where you check out Your pots and pans Or your pool sticks Or your ping-pong paddles Also, usually this is where The mail would be But all of the mail for This residence hall Is in Maple Hill So your fobs do work Over in Maple Hill Just so you can get Into the mail room over there But you and your roommate Will share our mailbox You'll get the code E-mailed to you A couple weeks before school Starts But if you get a package Or something big It will be held behind the desk So it's not just out For anyone to take And you will sign for it And show an ID for it So that's a little bit About the mail Did I miss anything About Front Desk? I think the last one Found is also here So if you lose something You can always ask The Front Desk Assistant And then If you lose your keys Those are gonna go to Maple South Maple South and hots Are very connected You'll get a lot Of your paperwork there You'll get your mail There and things like that You'll get familiar with them It's like a two second walk Like you're walking You can also see That we have the best cleaning staff Ever Because Ms. Lou Who you will meet She's the best One are The most altruistic ISA member of the year So just to know We have the best cleaning staff Ever So this is another area There's common room Study room And behind you We call it the fish pool But it's just kind of Like a computer This computer lab Kind of deal There's plugs in there You can hook up ports too A lot of people have meetings In there Or just do study groups In there Because there is desk space And chairs But you can also kind of Separate yourself Again, you can close it off For more privacy But it is see-through Like the fish pool So everyone can see you If you're in Leed Hog This is where you'll meet Every Monday night From six to seven We'll meet in this room Anyone is welcome If you decide You want to join late You can always join You can join the last meeting Of the year if you want But we'd love to have you That's where we meet Further down here This is kind of what we call Like the gaming station Kind of thing So we have these Like human-shaped chairs They're very ergonomical And they're really comfortable And they're made for gaming So definitely check this out If you want But you can definitely hook up Your laptops Or like Xboxes Gamecubes Whatever gaming devices You have And it also has Potentialation on the wall Over here So I love this piece It's just The state of Arkansas With a bunch of razor backs And then behind is Another group study room It's not see-through So it's not part of the visual But it just is another study room Yes So this is one of our arrays Thought you'd like to meet him Hi, I'm Elijah And I'm on a RA on the fourth floor And I'm excited to meet you guys Awesome Kurt wants to know Do wheat hogs get assistance Moving in on August 16th?

There are not printers And hots But the closest Computer library Can print is very close It's in Quad Next to Fulbright dining hall And so it's a quick Quick walk right over there And you can get your stuff printed Awesome And then we'll head down This little hallway right here So this hallway is home To Susie's office So if you ever need anything This is probably where She'll be hanging out My office hours are From nine to five Typically But I'm in a million Meetings a day Or in the hall Throughout Checking on things Helping people And so if you need something You can always stop by my office If I'm not here You can always email me Or talk to her Alright But my door is open I love meeting residents And then the office That's Susie's It's Heidi's Which is the GA That Michelle mentioned earlier So she's kind of the one That's in charge Of all the programming She'll play everything She'll probably be the one Communicating with y'all I don't know her office hours But I'm sure they'll be Similar to hers I'm sure you can email her With whatever you need as well Yeah And then behind me Is the gym So the gym You do have 24 hour Access to with your flop Which is What I don't have right now But I'm getting But it's really great It's not like a huge Like workout complex Like the hyper is Down the hill But this is at your Disposable 24-7 So if you need to Study break At two in the morning And you're really stressed out You can go for a run There's just some Equipment Got a treadmill Got a bench Got all left to go Got some weights Exercise balls Just a couple things Yeah Yeah I mean it's a pretty great space If you just want to do Your own exercises There's some floor space around It's usually not super packed So I've never waited on a treadmill But I don't know It's kind of nice to have Especially when the hyper Down the hill Which is the big facility That has six floors Is closed And you just kind of Want to do something On your own It's super convenient Yes It's the only residence hall That has gym equipment In the residence hall In Reid's Which is an old female Door right next door They just have Like a little Workout room That's just Wood floors In the dance studio But this one Actually has equipment Nancy wants to know If they will be moving Assistance For August 17th Let's see what they have There's I believe Is that the story If it is Then there's The 17th Yes There is Moving assistance that day The lead hogs Will actually be helping Move you in Because they're the best And they come early to help you Awesome We have a limited number Of dollies as well Yes We recommend that If you do have a dolly Or a mallet That you bring it with you We do have them Available to check out But it's with Four hundred people Moving in Over the course of a couple Of days It's usually kind of hard To get your hands on The laundry room Everyone's favorite subject But as we Pass the laundry Or get to the laundry We'll pass another set Of doors Because these are double Doors Just like the ones The entrance that we came in So you have to Fought into the second one This leads up to The resident reserve Parking lot The closest parking You have to your Other people So here we have A trash and recycling room So every floor Will have like A trash shoe And recycling bins But that's like The main one And it's all On right there And then Hands on here There is only one Launder room For this entire building And it's down here But as you'll see There's plenty of Machines for everyone So needless to say Very large So the great thing About laundry On the University of Arkansas Campus Is it's cleanless And cardless So it's already Included in your tuition And fees So you can just throw All your stuff in Leave it And then You don't even have To worry about setting A timer Because the University of Arkansas Has an app Which is awesome I use it All the time My freshman year You just know That say That you used Your tuition As soon as it's done So you don't have to Worry about leaving In there forever Or forgetting about it Or falling asleep Watching Netflix And you don't have to sit Down here But you totally can If you want to The only thing is You have to bring Your own detergent And softener And all that Fun stuff But things We would recommend You do bring A stand remover Like a shout Tide pods If you Like liquid detergent That works well We don't Use the powdered That doesn't know Can cause an issue So don't bring Your bleach We have a couple Questions Tina wants to know If the band Will have moving assistants On the 16th Let me get back to you On that In a second Okay, and then William wants to know Are they allowed to Bring their own printers You are allowed To bring your own printer But a lot of students Bring them And they don't End up using them They just use Their printing quota In the In the full bar Dining hall Or in the other labs It's $35 Yeah It's a $35 printing credit Which is 750 Black and white pages That number is decreased If you do color Or laminated Or do something fancy With the printing But it's 750 Black and white I've never run out Of my printing quota I've never I mean And I print All my online reading So Stephanie Wants to know If there's ever an issue With theft of laundry It depends on the year We can't guarantee That next year We'll have an issue In my time last year Didn't have any issues With theft You are able to Fill out a police report If you Desire If you think something's stolen Typically what happens Is someone thinks Their stuff has been taken But it's really just In another dryer Washer Or something like that We ran into that A few times But hasn't I have not seen An issue personally Yeah I never dealt With one My freshman year The only thing is My roommate and I Through both our stuff Into one washer And I took her Until you remember Which machine your stuff is in And I mean No one's really stealing Anything And that would be awkward Because if you walk around In your clothes And you know That it's your clothes It's just important If you're prompt Then you'll be You'll be More likely to go Cool Once somebody's Actually told it Someone else's laundry For them And left it there So If not anything else You know Yeah And if a loose item Gets left Typically we put it Cool We'll head up to A floor now Headed to the elevator Cool There are just some more offices For cleaning staff And how to do the staff The elevators can Get a little crazy So if you want to Take the stairs Recommend it But if you're living On the ninth floor Probably wouldn't There's a lot of stairs To go up every day Yes That's right Yeah, the ninth floor Is up Yes I looked on the fourth So I took the stairs Every day Just because I challenged To not be lazy And not gain that pressure To 15 And it was only 3-4 So it's fine But some days are To the order I don't think we mentioned The TVs either So there's TVs On every elevator lobby For important information About programs Things to get involved in Important messages Things like that But usually No more than like Eight people Get in the elevator at a time Unless you're really Just desperate To not wait on the next one Here every floor Will be like Decorated with a theme So like these walls Will be covered With like monopoly Or sushi Or whatever The RA's Decide to sign in ads And then this floor Also has one of those TVs That they were talking about Your RA's Probably will Email you For something important As well But they'll Flash it up there too And have Stuff about them For programming Old building For sign Sorry I just talked about How usually Those decorations here Each floor is themed Every floor Is a different color If you're all different If not They're just different On each floor Like right next to each other So if you get off On the wrong color And you see blue And you know You're supposed to be See green That helps So we headed To the study room first Yeah we'll do the study room Of course I think Is it this way? Yeah Maybe show a bathroom As well Okay But before we Get to the bathrooms We'll actually run Into a common space So every Floor of hop Has two Different common spaces And everything is mirrored So this is where a lot In the floor Programming will happen With just like your floor So whole building Programming will be Downstairs in the floor Programming will be up here So there's like This big common area Right here And then there's A little nook On the other side Yeah it gives you A nice little view Of the mountains What would be an example Of that For programming Oh gosh we have A whole gamut of them A lot of times Sometimes it's stress Relief You can come Do an activity To get away from Everything Or sometimes it's For educating on Diversity and inclusion Or maybe A academic success program Where you're learning study tips From your peers Or from your RA It's just really Whatever the students Want to see We try to gear Our floor program Towards that We love when residents Plan things on their Own too To you know I had a student Who was really passionate About calligraphy And bullet journaling And so she hosted A floor program On her floor We got her funding And she did that For calligraphy So we really love stuff Like that We also have a lot Of like video game parties A lot of movie parties On these floors And so it's really Just whatever you want To make it Sydney had a question About the elevators She heard that On move-in day You're only allowed To ride the elevator Up not down Is that true That is correct Yes And it's mainly on The busy days So Saturday for sure Depending on how Busy days The other days We do have to For safety And for capacity So Can you do the RA room To me? Oh Yeah So each residence hall floor Will have two RAs So they each have their own rooms They don't have a roommate It's just them in their room They usually have Pretty much an open door policy And you'll know It's the RA room Because they're decorated More heavily than everyone else And there's a convenient sign So you'll have two For floor One on each side Essentially And they're there For you 24-7 Whatever you need They man those phones The 24-hour phones And I got really close To my arrays I know not everyone does But I did So that was really cool And then we'll head Into the bathrooms So there's two sets of Backrooms, again Elevator splits it So this is usually An all boys floor I believe So everyone That uses over here Is all boys But if there is A female visitor on the floor Or a mom is here Help them in There is a unisex bathroom That they can use But everything else Is in all males So in here The sinks are all out And there's soaps And pentals And all that fun stuff And these are what we would Consider more spa style Where you have a complete door And there's a toilet And a shower in here So you can have Complete privacy And then Which is really nice And then Another time There is just Toilets So some are toilets And some are just toilets So if you just Go to the bathroom And you have a shower stall But if you need to get ready This one's just the shower So there's lots of different options I live in community style My freshman year I never waited on a shower I never waited on a bathroom Yeah, that's awesome And I'm a girl And I went through the recruitment And I never waited So I promise That's awesome Yeah, I promise it'll be okay After like the first day Everyone kind of falls Into their own schedule And I was in class All Monday Wednesday, Friday But I had Tuesday, Thursday off So it would just kind of fall Into your own schedule Then we're going to head to a study room This is a study room They're on the ends of each hall Just one end The other end is Actually a room That we'll see in a little bit So there's tables And chairs And outlets And everything But the best part is There's a complete white board pool So it's clean right now Because it's summer But usually this is filled up With calculus And physics And root pathology And anything that you could possibly think of It's really easy to use whenever Just probably erase after yourself See if you can get it open to the next person Yeah Yeah, she's a study room Every floor has one What was one of your harder classes Or classes that you're going to Do the most for your freshman year? I was involved in H2P Or the Honors Humanities Project My freshman year Which is a three-semesters course Through four-hour Honors College And it's my favorite class I've ever taken It actually made me change my major But it was the most flavor Since the class I've ever taken I was reading hundreds of pages a week I was writing essays I was studying vocab Studying terms I've never heard of And languages I've never heard of So that was definitely mine I know we've got a lot of paper writing parties In these study rooms I was perched up with a window seal With my backs against the windows That was just kind of my favorite spot But I know a lot of my friends That are at the Engineering College Really have not liked calculus 3 Oh yeah And DPQ And OCAM But as a history major I don't take any of those classes Tina wants to know If expo markers are provided For the study rooms? I don't believe they are They're not Okay It's doing consist We put them out But they're pretty quickly So you might have some In the first couple of days But I don't know if they go So bring around expo markers And you'd love to use those Because there's lots of whiteboards here What's that?

Mattress toppers Mattress toppers Shower shoes I've heard that's a good one Yeah, just cheap flip-flops Old Navy always has Like a dollar flip-flop day That's always a good place To get it I'm trying to think what else I really like my stretchy cords Because I just like Command strip them To my bed frame With a wall or something To keep my cords in place Could be a TV too Yeah I didn't bring a TV Because Netflix on the laptop But plenty of my guy friends Brought TVs to hook up Their gaming consoles too And if we wanted a movie night We either went downstairs To the new room Or we hung out in that room So TV's not super necessary But if it's something That you're passionate about Definitely bring it I brought a curate That saved me a couple of mornings For my 8AM classes I had a curate, a microwave And a refrigerator But if you don't want to bring Your own You can rent them through housing The fridge and the microwave Not the curate But you can Rent those And they will be in your room When you move in And you can have one Fridge per room And it needs to be One of the smaller ones The exact cubic size of it Is in the housing handbook If you have any questions About what to bring What not to bring Anything about the residence hall You can always just google The residence The UR residence hall handbook And you can find everything in there Another thing she mentioned That's important to know Is how to hang things So Command House Is what we recommend Don't bring nails Don't bring tags Things like that But when you take them off the walls Be very, very careful Because the paint on the walls Does chip easily And so we ask And you're responsible For any damage That is done to the walls And so make sure You peel those off Very, very carefully I don't have any damages In my room when I move down So it's possible Yes, it is possible If you are If you're careful I'm not careless Is the blue tape solving Yes And blue tape We love You will see lots Of this blue tape here The blue painter's tape It works well And it doesn't damage anything Stephanie wants to know How many outlets Are in each room That's a good question Let's do it for there I know there's someone Behind each bed I can't see quite enough there There's one over here So one, two, three, four Is there someone Behind the bed? I think so I think there should be I can imagine Fun fact While we're moving this You can lock these doors If you bring a lock Oh, well, there is That is someone Outlet through the That says on it Through the furniture side Yeah There's one more back there So there's two per side Two per side You're allowed to bring The extension cords With the multiple plugs If it has a surge protector on it So those typical standard ones With the little on-off button I had those one Yeah Well, there's also Back here a cable hookup So every room has cox cable This is probably one of the only times That our generation will have cable In these rooms But there's a hookup for it So if you have a TV You can watch the Bachelorette On Monday night At the right time Watch your football games I don't know if I have a phone network Sorry, guys And does TV All these youngsters Do have enough phone network So a lot of times There's football watch parties Down there And just in the room We're talking about cable And also the entire building Has Wi-Fi through it So, yeah You'll be able to access Your Wi-Fi barrier Anywhere in the building Basically Also each room has Its own temperature control So you're only fighting Your roommate About how cold it is And not the whole wall That one's up there Some of them are In different places Throughout the room But you do have Your own temperature control William wants to know What room numbers Were the corner rooms And the longer rooms That we showed earlier So the big long rooms Are the 08 So 408 608 So anything in 08 Those are the really big Study rooms The corner room Are the 409 And then I have to Give the other one One down there And grab the other numbers So the corner room Is 409 And then And then we can You check on the other Corner rooms later But 409 Definitely So 09s 08s and 09s Nancy wants to know If there's towel bars In the rooms Yes They're behind the doors Yeah Perfect And then for safety There's smoke detectors Or technically Particle detectors In each room So detects carbon monoxide Smoke Things like that So each room Has one of those For safety Cindy wants to know How well the AC works In the rooms It works It throws me out Fresh in here A couple of times And I froze her out too A couple of times But I think it gets Something either 68 or 69 And it's like A chilly 68 69 The thing that You do want to consider Is the building Is on a two pipe system And so that means We can only run heat Or only run cooling We cannot run both At one time And so During the summer We run cooling And then there's a season In the fall When we have to switch To heat And so during that season Of time It does get warm In the rooms We do our best To make sure That it's a short season But just due to the Building And the way it's made That will be A time Where it gets a little Warm A lot of people Brought those Clip on fans And clipped them The box fans But I'd go Clip on fans And call it The most popular And so just Right in your face So Yeah Kimber wants to know If there's a vacuum Available for students If not How do they clean the floor?

Hello everybody, Hood and Cobra Commander 788 here, and this is a quick look at the 1989 Battle Force 2000 Pulverizer Tank. And this is a Battle Force 2000 vehicle. It was not part of the first wave of Battle Force 2000 vehicles, so it does not fit with the future fortress. It didn't have that gimmick. But as you can see, it is in Battle Force 2000 colors. It's got the metallic gray, green, and blue. But this is not ready for review. This is missing some pieces. That's why you will not see it for this year's Battle Force 2000 month. It's not quite ready. It is missing some stabilizer arms that connect the turret to the main body of the tank. Those are missing. And without those, it doesn't really work the way that it should. Because it has a really interesting feature. It will, this cannon will elevate, it'll actually extend and telescope out with this popping plastic piece here that is constructed a little bit like a bendy straw. And it's kind of cool, but without those stabilizers, it just kind of flops around. It's a bobblehead. It just doesn't work at all. It may be amusing and funny, but it's not very effective as a weapon of war. So, until I get those stabilizers, it's just not quite ready to go. We'll get it ready at some point, but I thought you might like to see a quick look at the 1989 Pulverizer Tank for Battle Force 2000. We'll see you with another full Battle Force 2000 review on the weekend, but that's all for now. Thanks for watching. You had a few too many drinks, Pulverizer. What do you have to say for yourself? I'll never drink again.


I left the house and ran away to the theatre. My brother was in the theatre first. Then I ran away. My father was in a bad mood. Then I took him to the police station. I took him to the school. But I left the house and ran away with the manager. Then I went to the theatre.  He is a good boy.  He told me to bless him. He used to sit first. He used to sing along with me. He used to sing along with me. He used to sing along with me for 4-5 hours. He used to sing along with me. He used to sing along with me for 2-3 hours at a time. That's why I had a big imagination. I used to go to Kolhapur. I used to go to Kolhapur to stay there for 3-4 months. That's how it started. 4-5 years.  It was difficult. But I didn't care about doing anything. I used to sing along with the manager. I used to sing along with the manager. He was in my house for 6 years. He used to teach me how to sing in the morning, in the evening. He taught me how to sing in the evening. He used to teach me how to sing in the evening. I used to drink milk and dandwill from the morning. I used to sing along with the manager. He used to teach me how to sing in the evening. Sometimes, I would feel pity. He started inviting me and singing along with us. The leaning power was on me but it was incredible. as a When Pura is struck, the Swara is the only form I see. I cannot tell what is happening where. I can no longer see the movement outside. I am led only by the inner movement of the Swara.


Hey guys, welcome back skidstone series episode 26 I'm gonna go nice and slow and clearly in this video topic today is the finite element method We already covered this in great detail in an hour and a half long deep dive I'll put a link to that in the description. This video will cover more of the assembly language implementation for that topic and we're gonna focus on 3d frame elements, so We're finally getting into the actual nitty-gritty engineering topics, which is a good thing First off an example of what this even is now This is a ladder and this ladder is actually the same example that I gave in the previous video just in assembly this time not Matlab and so in green you can see the Undeformed ladder geometry that it's you know pressed up against the wall There's some angle here against the wall and then in red you have the deformed Configuration, so there's someone standing on the top wrong of the ladder not very safe in my opinion Applying a load in that direction and of course, there's also boundary conditions applied on the system So this bottom two nodes where the ladder hits the ground they're being fixed in space both Positionally and rotationally and then at the top of the ladder It's basically constrained that it can't move out of that Plane that it's in it's stuck in in this case the z-direction Basically, that's the ladder is up against the wall and it's not going to move through the wall or off the wall Couple other things about this The lines are elements the circles and x's are nodes talk about that what that is in this video and Lastly obviously the deformation is a function of the forces the moments the boundary conditions the materials the geometry all that but also one other thing that there's a function here is the scale factor and so in reality this deformation mode that you see here is very exaggerated I Multiplied the deformation by a factor of 500 just so you can see So with that out of the way, I'll get into more of the kind of the theory now I'm going to go into too much detail here because we already made the other video, but I'll cover the basics in this video so What is the finite element method? Basically, it's a way that engineers analyze structures among other things Idea is you divide a structure into its simple constituent pieces We call them elements with nodes, but you can imagine you know a bridge being decomposed into its individual trust elements or any kind of house framing or railing or fence or anything like that as long as you can and I give you examples of frames but Obviously any kind of system a table Any kind of body an aircraft a car can be modeled in the same way But in this video we're talking about frame elements, which I'll cover what that is in a second Anyway, the idea is that you divide a structure into pieces So for that ladder each rung if you saw was two elements the rails had a bunch of elements along them, etc Then what you do is you describe how each of those pieces by itself theoretically behaves as a function of its material of its geometries and of its Degrees of freedom so two end points if they move in this way What forces are required to make that happen and vice versa? How can the forces affect those degrees of freedom if I twist it if I bend it if I pull it? How do those forces affect degrees of freedom? That's called those equations are summed up into a matrix and we call that an elemental stiffness matrix Then once you have that matrix set up for every element in the body You can then Based off which elements are touching which other elements you can assemble a global Synthesis matrix, so let's say you had ten elements you put them all in one each of those Individual elemental synthesis matrices you assemble into one Global synthesis matrix in the global system and to do that you take the element connectivity So this is element one this is element two and this is node zero node one and node two Both elements one and two contain node one So the Degrees of freedom have to match so if I apply a force at node zero and a force at node two Those disciplines can move around in space any which way. However at node one it has to match Right you have to have those degrees of freedom from element two and element one match at node one because they're touching You can do that. They can't fly off apart from each other And then lastly once you've characterized the entire system of equations for the entire structure You can pull in all the forces that you're applying as well as all the boundary conditions that you're applying Get that entire Linear system set up and then solve it in our case. We are going to use I Think pivoted l u decomposition, but there are many other ways to solve these systems as well Okay, what's their frame element? Also called the beam element It's basically a long skinny object that you can describe the displacements of the two endpoints and kind of capture the whole system movement as of, you know As a result. So basically here you can see I have this long beam in pink here with node a and node b on it at each node I have a According system set up where x is along the axis of the beam and then Y is up and z is to the side obviously that's all you know Kind of random you can pick whatever you want for that and You can see that not only are there systems at each end. There's also displacements. That's the u There's rotations. That's the theta as well as forces f and moments m at each of those points So you could imagine pushing node a in the x direction Pushing it in the z direction pushing in the y direction Twisting it around the x direction, etc. So many different things you can do both at node a and at node b So there's six degrees of freedom per node 12 degrees of freedom for the entire frame element in 3d Now if it was planar Different story completely, but it's a this is a full 3d frame element in this video and then one last thing you might notice that the Moments have kind of random arbitrary signs so a negative some positive That's all picked arbitrarily to make the shearing Work out but as long as you're consistent with the moments for all your elements in the model You're okay to pick whatever sign that you want as long as you have one negative one positive obviously so positive moment y direction at node a negative at node b Positive at node b for x negative a etc for z positive negative Okay, no big deal What's next so The Elemental forces those things in red there Need to be related to the elemental displacements. Those are in green here So those 12 degrees of freedom in green are being related to those 12 Applied forces by this 12 by 12 pink elemental stiffness matrix k And it looks kind of big and i'm not going to get into the details of each individual Entry here, but this is basically populated with various geometric and material quantities So a is area l is length e is a is a stiffness property as well as g um j and i are inertia terms and That's pretty much the gist of it Um, but basically if you want to get details about how those terms come you can watch the other video on this topic that I made Um, and how does this work? So if you think about it think about force in the x direction at node a that is this guy here so obviously a force In that direction a compressive force an axial force at node a That is related to you think about rows times columns It's related related to basically this degree of freedom here and this degree of freedom here By these coefficients here And they're equal and opposite in sign but basically what you can think of is that a force in the x direction at node a is going to Basically slide this element in the x local x direction and that was only going to affect this value and This value of course the reason why the sign is negative for the second half is because A compressive force in this member Is going to actually be this way at node b and that's going to relate in a negative displacement in x That's why the sign on this coefficient is negative while this one is positive But who cares about that watch the video if you're curious But yeah, anything like that. So for example, um, how about this last one here the moment at node b about the z axis Takes these four coefficients Which relate let's see the second one So the y's as well as the data's It's this one and this one Which makes sense, right? Let's look at the picture. So that's the moment in the z direction at node b That's this one here. So moment like this And like this you can see how that's only going to affect the Angles of the two nodes About z as well as potentially it could push up node a and push up node b That's a displacement in the y direction at both of those Would you if we go back That makes sense Because we've just marked those trees of freedom. So there is a coefficient that relates that force to that particular degree of freedom moving how much well look at the value of this geometric slash material quantity here So it's pretty cool. If you have a system that's just one element, this can perfectly describe how the element Reacts to a applied force And then usually of course You know the applied forces right for our ladder example We knew that the force was you know 200 pounds at the top of the ladder You know what's being applied to the system. You don't know the internal forces But you don't care about that what you actually care about usually most of the time is the strains In the system or stresses, which are just basically the strains times something What is strain strain is how much each thing is moving how much each thing is stretching? That's basically this quantity here. How much we're moving in each direction twisting, etc So you have this kind of system where you have the forces, which you kind of know most of the time So they're the applied forces. This is a geometric slash material quantity. So you can get that by measuring Um You know if it's wood these are the values if it's steel these are the values If it's this thickness and this width you can compute the inertia terms, etc Now this you don't usually know and that's why before I mentioned our objective is to Solve the system of equations while you're solving for this unknown U vector here Now you might know some of them in the case that I gave before the ladder We knew that the degrees of freedom were fixed at the bottom So that node Let's call it node a all of these values here u You know theta u theta u theta We're all fixed to be zero for both of those two points at the bottom of the ladder And then also at the top we constrained the z direction. So that was u z and u z or whatever Where is it? Yeah, well for both nodes. So it was u z for both nodes Um, so you can constrain things and how does that work? Well? I won't get into it in this video check the other video, but you can apply constraints as well to the system Um, and you have to otherwise you get a you know an unsolvable system at you know singular Off the charts condition number, etc Okay, so how do you assemble that now you have each element right the idea was you created this 12 by 12 matrix for every element every wrong in that ladder every You know frame every stud in your house you came up with this 12 by 12 matrix What you do then is you have to assemble those into one big matrix because again where those elements touch you have to constrain the degrees of freedom to match so In this case for this bridge you can see here Well, let's go through the you know process so This entire bridge was broken into multiple frame elements And each element has its own 12 by 12 pink matrix um And each of those matrices needs to be transformed into a global system, but then once you do that you can uh assemble one massive system where Multiple elements that contain the same degree of freedom Have their individual stiffness contributions for that degree of freedom summed up And so how does that work? Well look at node 13 for example of this bridge um It has its own six degrees of freedom six ways in which it can move it can move in the x and the y and the z as well as about the x the y and the z directions and Those degrees of freedom are affected by the stiffness is of element six element seven and element eight remember if element Six is made of rubber and seven is made of rubber and eight is made of steel It didn't matter that the two elements six and seven were very soft. The steel element Was what made the system very stiff And so that's why you have to be able to deform the rubber piece And the steel piece both with the same degrees of freedom and the same forces So you're going to be adding up the contributions of each elemental stiffness entry at each degree of freedom Of course one key detail is the Orientation of each element needs to be picked needs to be the same So If you go back to this we've defined the elemental coordinate system to kind of be x along The the element and then y and z are kind of random When we get to the full up frame system that we have like this bridge, we have to pick one common System one common Coordinate frame to you So maybe call this one x call this one y call this one z or whatever you want to pick It has to match for all the elements So you have to basically transform Each of the local systems into the global system while you're assembling them Not too hard, but definitely you have to worry about that as well so How does this work in our implementation? Well, it's pretty simple. I have this data structure here which encodes pretty much all the relevant information for each 3d frame system And here are the entries. So the first one is the number of nodes So I have a bike frame here as an example You can see I have marked each node of this bike frame node zero one two Three four five and six. So there's a total of seven nodes dq seven Then we have 10 elements. Let's count them You know, there's one here one here one here And there's four green ones this these two salmon ones and then a blue one over here That total is 10 and then number of element types So this is a way to be more efficient so I can say well All these pink elements are more or less the same geometry and same materials so they The length may change But they have the same cross-sectional area the same inertia's the same You know material properties and so all the pink elements are of one type call that type zero The salmon ones here are maybe a little bit thinner Maybe different material or whatever Probably not, but that's its own element. So there's one pink element set one salmon element set One green element set and then one of those blue element sets back there. So there's one two three four element types Then what you do is and this is it's going to have to do manually is You set up an array for the nodes so Every single node node zero one two all seven of them you have to describe its position in space x y and z That's how this node array is set up. And so this is a pointer to that array It's somewhere else in memory. You put the address here Then the element array so in this case You can see here each row of this array is a Quad word of Three things so each row is three quad words. So the first node of the element The next node of the element as well as the element type So you can see here, let's take element zero for example that contains node zero Node one and let's say its element type is zero The pink ones are all element type zero. Let's say so then this element array contains basically The first row of it is just zero one zero And the next one next row would be for element one. It would say node one Node two element type zero and the third and then element two So the third entry here would say okay node two node three element type zero How about element four? Well, it would say node three Node four. Oh, sorry. That's element four node element three is up here It would say node zero node four element type one Or whatever you picked And again the order can change so it could have been zero four could have been four zero It doesn't make a difference as long as you are consistent in how you Make things match up Lastly is the element type matrix now This is basically just a list of all the geometric and material properties for each element type So the pink element we call that type zero. That would be the first row. I have to write down the sickness terms so the E the g the area the inertial terms as well as this v thing What is v? I won't give you the too much detail Basically, it's a a vector that kind of is used to orient the local elements frame in the global system so it's kind of a A vector that we can hit the cross product of the Beam itself with to get the z direction. That's kind of what that's it up. So we'll put in A generic Vector that we can use to orient our elements if you're curious to how that works check the other video Then that's pretty much it for manual stuff For the most part then this function that we implemented here For this video is called the assemble frame elements function Basically what that does is it takes this entire frame data structure and it populates a full up Once you allocate the memory this can populate the Data for this whole matrix this full not not 12 by 12 But the entire system it can be you know a million by million This function will populate the entire system Based off the input data. So the material properties geometry as well as the node positions the element array etc And then of course you're trying to solve this f equals k u function f is the applied forces k is the System that we just made with this function and u is the unknowns that we want to solve for So f has to come from something Again, that's the applied forces and I guess you could say they're always going to be zero But that might not be an interesting problem to solve So in our case the forces for that ladder were you know 200 pounds at the top And you know you could think of other forces to apply as well Let's say you know someone was holding the ladder against the wall another force there. This is basically a Encoding of this so the element well The forces at each degree of freedom in the global system. So you have to make that yourself as well So once you've got this set up, what's the overall process? So first was to define the geometry get all the nodes positions defined in that node array Define the elements themselves. So which nodes are in which elements What the element types may be as well as to find the geometry and the materials That's all these items here Number of nodes elements element types As well as node array element array element type array Okay, then what you do is you use that function I talked about to create up the full you know massive to this matrix And then you apply the boundary conditions. So you may impose Zeros here. You may apply a displacement here You may apply a force here Sure, whatever you want to do you can do then you solve a system Whatever way you want. We're going to use l u decomposition, but you can do whatever you'd like And lastly you post process. So if you want to get the strains you want to get the stresses You want to see how it looks you can do that And for more details again, check the other video So now into the code Let's see how this works So there were two examples for this There was a cantilever beam example and the ladder example that you just saw. So in the cantilever beam example Let's run it first So it's very simple. It's a beam with two elements And three nodes and you can see here that it looks it's constrained on the left So zero everything at that position and then we're applying a downward force At the right hand side So very simple. How does this get set up? So let's see In this example, we have to have a heap obviously because we're going to be Rendering to the screen again that requires buffers to render to the screen As well as a few other things require heap as well So the include of importance here is this well, I guess two of them one is the Actual l u solve Function in this case the pivoted version of that which we use to solve the system of equations and then we have the actual Function of importance for this particular video, which was the one that Assembles the entire in this matrix So again, we have a cursor that we're drawing to the screen as before All the rendering is as it was in previous videos. I'll ignore that just because it's kind of repetitive at this point so Let's take a look at the actual um data structure So here is that 3d frame system If you recall there are indeed three nodes on that beam You know left middle right. There were two elements right left and right and there was one element type Why I defined it and then I have a pointer here for all the node arrays, etc And let's see I have those defined here. So here's the node array. So you can see that the left hand point is at 000 The middle point was at 0.500 the right hand point was at 000 and then the element array down here Shows that element 0 contains nodes 0 and 1 an element 1 Contains nodes 1 and 2 and they're both type 0 And what is type 0? Basically, it's an element that has these two material properties An area in the cross section of 1 and then these three initial terms as well as a generic orientation matrix Or should say vector for how we're going to position that local element frame in the global frame And then I have some space in this binary set aside for the status matrix the forcing matrix and the unknown matrix and here you can see in the forcing matrix It's 18 entries long because there's six degrees of freedom times three nodes and in that vector Looks like the 14th element down Is set to negative 50,000. So i'm applying a massive negative load at What's probably the z direction or the y direction? At the right hand degree of freedom And so how did this work? Well, basically you can see here We have that data structure defined in memory And then these two lines here I put that address of that frame element structure into rdi I call this function that will populate the global synthesis matrix for that frame system And then I go through and I apply the boundary conditions. So here you can see looks like I have set for the first node the six degrees of freedom that can Control its position and rotation are also the zeros And so the way that works is basically i'm looking into the details But you set basically identity matrix for those degrees of freedom and then you zero out all the rows and columns in those rows and columns And then I also Yeah, put the put the one on the diagonal there you can see it put 1.0 in the six rows and columns and Then we get into actually solving. So now we have the entire system set up We have the nodes positions the elements positioned All the material defined the matrix traded the forces applied The displacement is applied Now we solve and so here we're using that plu solve. So the pivoting l u decomposition method And so we have to make a pivoting vector to kind of use to Order our rows and columns if our algorithm requires it. So we've allocated memory for that solve the system And then this basically puts the solution in memory Where we've given this space. So we have this unknown matrix 18 quad words long That's attached to our frame element structure here at the bottom offset of like 64 bytes from the top So our answers are now going to be in that slot essentially So that's what this does here and then lastly Looks like I free some memory for some reason. I don't know why I did that and then I now add Well, I create all the rendering stuff. So I create the green undeformed beam and the red deformed beam as a function of those solved degrees of freedom So yeah, that's how this works. Oh, and then I should say at the very end It has the same old rendering loop as usual so perspective Structure set up and in terms of what's being rendered to the screen. We have a couple of different geometries. We have basically the line segments as well as the points Both for the undeformed and the deformed configuration And so that's total of four things being drawn if you look down here And so just to get to show you The undeformed is in green deformed some red and yes, it works as intended So that's that's a good thing I guess um example B so Most of the same thing Again, I run just giving example how it looks So again the latter example a bunch of nodes It's basically the same thing as before just with more elements, etc, you know So how does this work? Well, it's pretty much the exact same thing with one key difference And that is that the it's it's too hard for me to draw basically to Come up with the node positions manually and so I've parametrized it And so you kind of can see down here We have some parameters that control the latter angle for example as well as the cross sectional area of The rungs and the side rails and the lengths of things and so you could change these values Maybe we should let's make this value a 20 Make them longer. I don't know Make ladder, you know, how about some steeper ladder. Let's say 10 degrees. I don't know Now if we run it You can see it's definitely taller Um, and it's More steep of a ladder, but again, it's the same kind of information mode So the difference here is pretty much one thing and that it's not it's that I can't Define the ladders points and geometry Very easily manually and so I have a function does it does it for me It's called generate ladder system and you can see here It basically creates that entire 3d frame structure itself Based off the input. So if you pass in number of rungs number of No side rail elements between rungs The height the everything that you want to do for that ladder you can kind of parametrize it and call this function So yeah, that's pretty cool. Besides that it's pretty much the exact same thing as the previous one So again Uh You can do pretty cool stuff with this And this is just frame elements. Again, there's shell elements. There's solid elements There's many many more element types out there. These are just two elements per What two nodes per element you could have Seven For elements you could have non linear elements. You can do other things that you'd like as well And again, this is linear analysis. You can do non linear analysis You can do geometric non linearity as well as material linearity And so much more Also, you can couple things together. Let's say you want to let's say this ladder at the top It had a plate so you it would connect These one two three four five six seven elements together with a plate Well, then you could add that shell or that plate element to this model With its own degrees of freedom as long as it's, you know, set up properly It can intermingle with this implementation as well. So Anyway, it's very easy to do this. Um, took me some time to go through it, but it's not that hard And if you look at the file size That entire ladder fea that we just did Define the ladder, you know, the entire rendering pipeline that handles text and 3d solids and stuff all that together is 25 kilobytes so Not a lot and by the way, a lot of that kilobytes is just random Garbage for I can even show you what kind of garbage we're talking about. Let's go Let's go to lib engineer fem And here's that function that I talked about. This is the actual black box function of today's video I'll show you like look at this at the bottom of this program I have defined in the binary in the flat memory model like A thousand bytes for the elemental tip of matrix before it's transformed I have a thousand more bytes just here in the in the file in the binary for The you know The transformation, you know and the transpose and all this different stuff like I've defined and I have a working slot here This could all be on the heap. So between these five things I could cut out and save over five kilobytes But I'm not gonna but I you know, I could so There are ways to make this better more efficient, but it works the way it is and I'll talk more about this in the next video, but With that out of the way, uh, thanks for watching. It's pretty cool stuff. Hope you enjoyed it. See you in the next video


Hi, this is Mary Wisner from the Gallagher Law Library at the University of Washington School of Law. How can you focus your search so that you don't get a zillion results? Big tip here is to take advantage of the way the documents are structured in the database. Just as in your contacts list, there's a field for name and a field for email. In databases, there's always a way that documents are structured. Here's an example. If we're looking for Washington cases involving the Department of Ecology, we might just search for Department of Ecology. In Lexis, that gets 986 cases. But that includes some cases like this one, where one of the judges cites a case about the Department of Ecology, but the case itself seems to be about bankers. So that's not what we want. Solution. Look for the advanced search option in Lexis, and then they will give you a template showing you different fields that you can use. In this case, I'm going to search for Department of Ecology to be the party name. Now we get just 270 cases. Down from 986, that's much more efficient. Here's another example. Suppose I'm curious about cases where Hugh Spitzer was counseled for one of the parties. I can search for Hugh within two words of Spitzer. Using W2, by the way, is a way to cover whether he uses a middle initial or a middle name. So that's often a good way to be flexible searching for names, doing first name within two words of the last name. Anyway, we run this search and we get 72 cases. Has he been counseled for 72 cases? Well, it includes cases that cite his publications. So for instance, here's one citing an article he wrote in the Seattle University Law So it's interesting, but it's not where he was counseled. We go into that advanced search template and we see that there's an option searching for attorney name. And now we see 27 cases down from 72, much more efficient. Let's switch to Westlaw for an example. What if we're looking for Washington cases about self-defense as a defense in assault? Just searching for self-defense and assault gives us over 1600 cases. If we click on advanced search, we see that Westlaw has a template that we can fill in. And I want to look for self-defense and assault to be in either the synopsis or the digest field. Now we get 266 down from 1636, so it's much more focused. The synopsis is the section at the front of the case where the West editors summarize the case. They give the background and the holdings. The digest field is the head notes, the one-sentence summaries of points of law tied into the West topics and key numbers. We'll talk about these in another lesson. But for now, notice that this helps make sure that our terms are in an important part of the case where the editors have determined this is what the case is about. One more example, law review articles about quarantine for infectious diseases. If I go into the law journal library in Heinon Line and I search for quarantine and infectious, I get 3,234 results. If I say show me your advanced search options, I can look for infectious and then require quarantine to be in the article title. Now I have just 87 results down from 2,300, and so it's much more focused. I would rather skim through 87 titles than 2,300. Notice that this first article is from 1909. That highlights that Heinon Line has law journals generally back to volume one of the journal, often going back to the 19th century. It's a much longer scope of coverage than Lexis or Westlaw. Sometimes if you only want recent materials, you might consider searching with a date range looking at the last 10 years or last 15 years. Now what has been the commonality in these different examples? No matter whether we were looking at Lexis or Westlaw or Heinon Line, we were able to click on an advanced search option and get to a template that let us focus on the different fields. This is true in a lot of different databases, not just the three databases I've shown you today. Again, this has been Mary Wisner from the Gallagher Law Library.
