A Functional Analytic Approach to Homogenization Problems

  • Conference paper
Integral Methods in Science and Engineering

Abstract

This chapter is devoted to the homogenization of boundary value problems in a periodically perforated domain by an approach which is alternative to those of asymptotic analysis and of classical homogenization theory. The domain has a periodic structure, and the size of each cell is determined by a positive parameter δ. The relative size of each periodic perforation is instead determined by a positive parameter ε. We analyze the behavior of a family of solutions as δ and ε degenerate to zero.
