Optimized Schwarz methods for the Stokes–Darcy coupling

This article studies optimized Schwarz methods for the Stokes–Darcy problem. Robin transmission conditions are introduced, and the coupled problem is reduced to a suitable interface system that can be solved using Krylov methods. Practical strategies to compute optimal Robin coefficients are proposed, which take into account both the physical parameters of the problem and the mesh size. Numerical results show the effectiveness of our approach.
