Abstract

Hydrodynamical simulations have played an important role in the understanding of extragalactic jets since the late seventies. In this talk, recent simulations of jets in the relativistic regime are reviewed. Special attention is payed to simulations of jets at parsec scale which, for the first time. have allowed to probe the current models of superluminal radio sources.
