Using a compressible fluid-solid test system, we would like to illustrate the need for implicit immersed continuum method. The implicit mixed finite element formulation for both solid and fluid domains solves the volume conservation problem associated with immersed methods. The immediate extension of the implicit compressible immersed continuum method is to handle continuum-continuum coupling in soft material designs.
