Abstract
A two-temperature magnetohydrodynamic model of a dense Z-pinch and an algorithm for solving the time-dependent axisymmetric problem for both ideal and nonideal plasmas are described. The algorithm is based on t he Euler-Lagrange scheme with the use of the free-point method develop ed by D'yachenko. Applications of this algorithm to simulations of a d ense Z-pinch are presented.
