Abstract
We present a convergence analysis for the space discretization of a time-dependent system
of partial differential equations modeling an elasto-acoustic interaction problem. We use the
Arnold-Falk-Winther mixed finite element method with weak symmetry in the solid and the
usual Lagrange finite element method in the acoustic medium. The error analysis of the resulting global semi-discrete scheme relies essentially on the mapping properties of an adequate
projector. We show that the method is stable uniformly with respect to the space discretization
parameter and the Poisson modulus and we prove asymptotic error estimates.
