Numerical analysis of a transmission problem with Signorini contact using mixed-FEM and BEM
This paper is concerned with the dual formulation of the interface problem consisting of a linear partial differential equation with variable coefficients in some bounded Lipschitz domain Ω in (n ≥ 2) and the Laplace equation with some radiation condition in the unbounded exterior domain Ωc:= . The two problems are coupled by transmission and Signorini contact conditions on the interface Γ = ∂Ω. The exterior part of the interface problem is rewritten using a Neumann to Dirichlet mapping (NtD)...
