  We outline a formalism to carry out TDHF calculations of fusion cross
sections for spherical + deformed nuclei. The procedure incorporates the
dynamic alignment of the deformed nucleus into the calculation of the fusion
cross section. The alignment results from multiple E2/E4 Coulomb excitation of
the ground state rotational band. Implications for TDHF fusion calculations are
discussed. TDHF calculations are done in an unrestricted three-dimensional
geometry using modern Skyrme force parametrizations.
