Abstract
We study the interaction of magnetic monopoles and domain walls in a model with SU(5)X Z(2) symmetry by numerically evolving the field equations. We f ind that the monopoles unwind and dissipate their magnetic energy on collis ion with domain walls within which the full SU(5) symmetry is restored.
