Abstract: We consider in this paper numerical approximation of a nonlinear fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model with a fixed interface. We construct a new class of pressure-correction schemes for the FSI problem, and prove rigorously that they are unconditionally stable. These schemes are computationally very efficient, as they lead to, at each time step, a coupled linear elliptic system for the velocity and displacement in the whole region and a discrete Poisson equation in the fluid region.
