Abstract: The Cartesian arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) method is generalized to cylindrical coordinates and implemented on logically rectangular quadrilateral mesh. For laser plasma applicationsg the code is extended to model also laser absorption and heat conductivity. The code is used for simulation of high velocity impact problem for which pure Lagrangian method fails due to severe mesh distortion.
