Multiscale convergence and reiterated homogenization of parabolic problems

Anders Holmbom, Nils Svanstedt, Niklas Wellander (2005)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Reiterated homogenization is studied for divergence structure parabolic problems of the form ∂ u ε / ∂ t - div a x , x / ε , x / ε 2 , t , t / ε k ∇ u ε = f . It is shown that under standard assumptions on the function a ( x , y 1 , y 2 , t , τ ) the sequence { u ϵ } of solutions converges weakly in L 2 ( 0 , T ; H 0 1 ( Ω ) ) to the solution u of the homogenized problem ∂ u / ∂ t - div ( b ( x , t ) ∇ u ) = f .

Upper bounds for a class of energies containing a non-local term

Similarity:

In this paper we construct upper bounds for families of functionals of the form E ε ( φ ) : = ∫ Ω ε | ∇ φ | 2 + 1 ε W ( φ ) d x + 1 ε ∫ ℝ N | ∇ H ¯ F ( φ ) | 2 d x where Δ H ¯ u = div { χ Ω u}. Particular cases of such functionals arise in Micromagnetics. We also use our technique to construct upper bounds for functionals that appear in a variational formulation of the method of vanishing viscosity for conservation laws.
