Abstract :
A numerical method for investigating the two-dimensional behaviour of a fuel pellet in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) is presented. In this method, a severe mesh distortion or mesh overlapping is avoided by introducing an arbitrary mesh velocity. Example computations are presented for the implosion phase of an ICF pellet irradiated by a light-ion beam (LIB)
