Abstract
To gain information for the design of practical feedback schemes, the response of nonlinear resistive modes to boundary conditions imposed by external conductors and resistive vessels is analyzed in the time domain. Newly derived explicit dynamical equations describe the nonlinear evolution of the tearing mode island width and frequency of rotation. These equations are appropriate to explain previous experimental and theoretical results quantitatively.Keywords
