The prediction of the non-linear saturated state of islands is the goal of [[Neoclassical transport|Neoclassical]] Tearing Mode (NTM) theory.
The prediction of the non-linear saturated state of islands is the goal of [[Neoclassical transport|Neoclassical]] Tearing Mode (NTM) theory.
This theory has been developed to a considerable level of sophistication, although discrepancies with experimental observations remain.
