Corrector Analysis of a Heterogeneous Multi-scale Scheme for Elliptic Equations with Random Potential

Guillaume Bal, Wenjia Jing (2014)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

This paper analyzes the random fluctuations obtained by a heterogeneous multi-scale first-order finite element method applied to solve elliptic equations with a random potential. Several multi-scale numerical algorithms have been shown to correctly capture the homogenized limit of solutions of elliptic equations with coefficients modeled as stationary and ergodic random fields. Because theoretical results are available in the continuum setting for such equations, we consider here the case of a second-order...

Corrector results for a parabolic problem with a memory effect

Patrizia Donato, Editha C. Jose (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The aim of this paper is to provide the correctors associated to the homogenization of a parabolic problem describing the heat transfer. The results here complete the earlier study in [Jose, Rev. Roumaine Math. Pures Appl.54 (2009) 189–222] on the asymptotic behaviour of a problem in a domain with two components separated by an ε-periodic interface. The physical model established in [Carslaw and Jaeger, The Clarendon Press, Oxford (1947)] prescribes on the interface the condition that the flux...

Correctors and field fluctuations for the pϵ(x)-laplacian with rough exponents : The sublinear growth case

Silvia Jimenez (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

A corrector theory for the strong approximation of gradient fields inside periodic composites made from two materials with different power law behavior is provided. Each material component has a distinctly different exponent appearing in the constitutive law relating gradient to flux. The correctors are used to develop bounds on the local singularity strength for gradient fields inside micro-structured media. The bounds are multi-scale in nature and can be used to measure the amplification of applied...
