Abstract

We consider the exterior free boundary Bernoulli problem in the case of a rough given domain. An asymptotic analysis shows that the solution of the initial problem can be approximated by the solution of a non-rough Bernoulli problem at order $2$. Numerical tests confirm these theoretical results.
