In this review I am discussing the current state of simulating the internal evolution of AGB stars. Recent work on AGB stars include the effect of rotation, magnetic fields and internal gravity waves, as well as thermohaline mixing induced by the 3He + 3He pp-chain reaction. Hydrodynamic simulations of the interior convection of AGB stars are now becoming available, giving insights to convective boundary mixing, for example for He-shell flash convection. At very low metallicity convective-reactive events are encountered in AGB stars (as well as in massive stars), and the necessity of hydrodynamic simulations to address this difficult phase of stellar evolution is emphasized.
