Abstract
The computational simulations play an important role
in the study of inertial confinement fusion physics. For the understanding of
the physics, integrated implosion code which includes all physics important in
the implosion has been developed. On the other hands, several computational
codes have been developed in order to verify the physics models and analyze
experimental results. The characteristics of these computational codes and
recent progress of implosion, ignition, Rayleigh-Taylor instability , ripple
shock propagation, and burn dynamics analysis are reported here.
