AB: Multiphysics couplings can happen in different ways. AŸƒ_sA,AÿOne may have different physical processes (e.g. flow, transport, reactions) occurring within the same physical domain, or one may have different physical regimes (e.g., surface/subsurface environments, fluid/structure interactions) interacting through interfaces. We will discuss both of these types of multiphysics couplings during this presentation. Of particular interest will be the development of interpolation/projection algorithms for projecting physical quantities from one space/time grid to another, the investigation of mortar and mortar-free methods for coupling multiple physical domains, and the coupling of non-conforming and conforming finite element methods.
