With the local approximation near the rational surfaces, the analytical expressions of the evolution of non-linear tearing modes are derived from MHD equations; and are compared with the previous results for linear and non-linear tearing modes. The phenomenon of modulation and anomalous increase is explained, which was found in the experiments of the maor disruptions in Tokamaks.
