Abstract In this paper, based on the natural boundary reduction method advanced bu Feng and Yu, we are concerned with a domain decomposition method with nonmatching grids for a certain nonlinear interface problem in unbounded domains. We first discuss a new coupling of finite element and boundary element by adding an auxiliary circle. Then we use a dual basis multipier on the interface to provide the numerical analysis with nonmatching grids. Finally, we give some numerical examples further to confirm our theoretical results.

Abstract The advantages of coupling of a natural boundary element method and a finite element method are introduced. Then we discuss the principle of the direct coupling of NBEM and FEM and its implementation. The comparison of the results between the direct coupling method and FEM proves that the direct coupling method is simple, feasible and valid in practice. More >
