“…Coupled BEM-FEM can be traced back to McDonald and Wexler [34], Zienkiewicz, Kelly and Bettess [45], Johnson and Nédélec [26] and Jin and Liepa [25]. Over the last decade, such methods have been investigated, among others, for electromagnetic scattering [21,29,30], elasticity [11], and fluid-structure [13] or solid-solid interactions [33,44]. Coupled BEM-FEM for the classical Helmholtz equation can present resonant frequencies, leading to infinitely many solutions.…”
