This paper proposes and analyzes a numerical method for solving the coupled Stokes and Darcy problem, an interface problem between a fluid, governed by Stokes equations, and a flow in a porous medium, governed by Darcy equations. The method employs H(div) conforming finite elements for the velocity

We consider a model of coupled free and porous media flow governed by Stokes and Darcy equations with the Beavers-Joseph-Saffman interface condition. This model is discretized using divergence-conforming finite elements for the velocities in the whole domain. Discontinuous Galerkin techniques and mi
A stabilized mixed finite element method for solving the coupled Stokes and Darcy flows problem is formulated and analyzed. The approach utilizes the same nonconforming Crouzeix-Raviart element discretization on the entire domain. A discrete inf-sup condition and an optimal a priori error estimate a
