Multi layered destruction in Houdini Grains, Pyro tools, RBD's, MaterialX and KARMA XPU

We will fracture everything and then set up the simulation with sophisticated use of constraints.
Next, we will add multiple different layers of details by utilizing various techniques.
These will be particle simulations, Pyro simulations for airfields and dust and we will also look at emitting RBD's to add additional small pieces.
We will then look at USD and SOLARIS in order to set up the scene for rendering.
We will then look at using materialX and the new XPU pyro shader so that we can utilize the new (beta) XPU feature of KARMA which greatly accelerates rendering time.
