 note = {"Nonlinear simulations of a magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) plasma in full three-dimensional geometry of the Large Helical Device (LHD) are conducted to study nonlinear evolution of pressure-driven instabilities.   A series of simulations for a resistive plasma shows growth of resistive ballooning instability.  The growth rate of the most unstable resistive ballooning mode is shown to be proportional to the one-third power of the resistivity.   Nonlinear saturation of the instability and its slow decay are observed.  After the nonlinear saturation, the pressure takes a profile similar to so-called pedestal .   A possible scenario of nonlinear relaxation of a plasma toward a new equilibrated state is discussed."},
