This [Washington Post][1] news article states that with the advent of computer simulation of nuclear tests, live tests are no longer needed.
Generally speaking there are 3 aspects of an Explosion resulting from a nuclear weapon test that are tested:
(a) effectiveness, (b) yield, and (c) explosive capability.
Russia carried out its last nuclear test in 1990, UK in 1991,the US in 1992, France and China in 1996, India & Pakistan in 1998.

Therefore, does this mean that all aspects of a Nuclear Explosion can be simulated using Super computers or is there any aspect of a Nuclear Explosion that cannot be simulated by Super Computers?
