Abstract : This paper presents a critical review of numerical methods for solving a wide variety of interface problems emphasizing the immersed finite element method (IFEM). It is found in the literature that most of the researchers considered the well-known methods with some modifications, however limited number of research articles proposed new algorithms. Apart from the algorithm, this study highlights the wide range of applications of interface problems specifically in biomedical, heat-transfer and turbo-machinery. Different numerical methods for interface problems with their major finding are listed in tabulated form at the end.
