Forced magnetic reconnection induced by magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves may account for the triggering of explosive solar activities such as flares. Reconnection in a neutral sheet plasma can be driven by the ponderomotive force associated with nonlinear MHD waves accompanying plasma vortex motion. The nonlinear stage of forced reconnection by MHD waves is simulated with a MHD particle-code. Some conditions for fast reconnection are discussed with applications to solar flares.
