The author proposes an algorithm to compute an approximation of capillary surfaces in a gravitational field. The algorithm is based on a decomposition-coordination method by augmented Lagrangians and the discretization is done using the finite element method. The convergence of the algorithm and the discretization error for the axisymmetric case are studied. Some numerical results are given.
