In this paper, we present a generalization of a Neumann-Neumann domain deco
mposition method with scalability properties to solve non-symmetric systems
. This generalization uses the theoretical framework of Schwarz additive de
composition method,vith introduction of a coarse space well adapted to non-
symmetric cases. The efficiency of this method is evaluated on non-symmetri
c frictional contact problems. (C) 2000 Academie des sciences/Editions scie
