Since majority of phenomena which occur around us are coupled ones, the necessity for coupled analysis is well-known. In many computational mechanics studies, however, the coupled effect is disregarded because of the difficulty to consider it in a numerical computation. In other words, the coupled analyses are much complicated as compared with the non-coupled ones. We have employed the EFMM for this class of problems as this method has various advantages, for example, analysis accuracy improves sharply as compared with the FEM. In the present paper, we aim at conducting efficient coupled analysis, which does not use a middle-point node by using the present method.
