Description

Time dependent brane solutions of supergravity have been
of particular importance in the advances of gravity theory.
We review the current status of these "dynamical" brane solutions
in higher-dimensional supergravity theories and discuss primarily
the gravitational aspects of p-branes and their relatives in various
dimensions. We also comment the D-brane and M-brane solutions
in ten and eleven dimensions, which provide a number of interesting
black objects, cosmological models, supersymmetric breaking,
and the violation of cosmic censorship.
