This paper deals with the coupled problem arising from the interaction of a time-harmonic electromagnetic field with a three-dimensional elastic body. More precisely, we consider a suitable transmission problem holding between the solid and a sufficiently large annular region surrounding it, and aim to compute both the magnetic component of the scattered wave and the stresses that take place in the obstacle. To this end, we assume Voigt's model, which allows interaction only through the boundary of the body, and employ a dual-mixed variational formulation in the solid medium. As a consequence, one of the two transmission conditions becomes essential, whence it is enforced weakly through the introduction of a Lagrange multiplier. An abstract framework developed recently, which is based on regular decompositions of the spaces involved, is applied next to show that our coupled variational formulation is well-posed. In addition, we define the corresponding Galerkin scheme by using PEERS in the solid and using the edge finite elements of Nédélec in the electromagnetic region. Then, we prove that the resulting coupled mixed finite element scheme is uniquely solvable and convergent. Moreover, optimal a priori error estimates are derived in the usual way. Finally, some numerical results illustrating the analysis and the good performance of the method are also reported.
