At each time step, we have to solve a highly non-linear coupled system, since the fluid domain depends on the unknown displacement of the structure. We propose a modified fixed-point algorithm which combines the Block-Gauss–Seidel iterations with a transpiration formulation. Numerical experiments show the great improvement in computing time with respect to the standard method.Computational fluid mechanicsFluid–structure interactionBlock-Gauss–Seidel iterationsTranspirationHighly coupled non-linear problemsWeak and strong coupling algorithmsPartitioned procedurestext::journal::journal article::research article
