Abstract

We consider the Laplace equation posed in a three-dimensional axisymmetric domain. We reduce the original problem by a Fourier expansion in the angular variable to a countable family of two-dimensional problems. We decompose the meridian domain, assumed polygonal, in a finite number of rectangles and we discretize by a spectral method. Then we describe the main features of the mortar method and use the algorithm Strang Fix to improve the accuracy of our discretization.
