Some Recent Developments in Coupling of Finite Element and Boundary Element Methods - Part I: An Overview

Conventional and a class of domain decomposition finite element–boundary element coupling (FEM–BEM) methods are reviewed. This is Part I of two papers. In Part II, a review of the mixed Dirichlet-Neumann domain decomposition FEM-BEM coupling method is presented and optimal dynamic values of the relaxation parameters for the mixed Dirichlet-Neumann FEM-BEM coupling method are, furthermore, derived.
