| contents | We study a novel approach for the existence of solutions to an incompressible fluid-rigid body interaction problem in three dimensions. Our approach introduces an iteration based on a sequence of related problems posed on domains with prescribed evolution. In particular we prove the short-time existence of strong solutions to a system coupling the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations to the ordinary differential equations governing the motion of a rigid body, with no slip boundary conditions on the boundary of the rigid body, provided that the relative density $\fracρ{ρ_B}$, is sufficiently small. We also discuss the use of our iterative approach in numerical methods for the moving boundary problem, and complement this with some numerical experiments in two dimensions which demonstrate the necessity of the smallness assumption on $\fracρ{ρ_B}$. |
