Title: Decoupling Multi-physics Computation with Intrinsic Robin Condition
Abstract: 
We discuss decoupling issues for numerical computation with coupled PDE models in large-scale simulation of multi-physics systems. An abstract mathematical framework is presented for devising effective and efficient decoupled numerical methods based on a new type of Robin interface condition. It finds a wide range of applications from classical domain decomposition, parallel computing, to contemporary multi-physics simulation such as mixed fluid-porous media flows and fluid-structure interactions (FSI).
