Homogenization of periodic nonconvex integral functionals in terms of Young measures

Omar Anza Hafsa, Jean-Philippe Mandallena, Gérard Michaille (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

Homogenization of periodic functionals, whose integrands possess possibly multi-well structure, is treated in terms of Young measures. More precisely, we characterize the Γ -limit of sequences of such functionals in the set of Young measures, extending the relaxation theorem of Kinderlherer and Pedregal. We also make precise the relationship between our homogenized density and the classical one.

A characterization of gradient Young-concentration measures generated by solutions of Dirichlet-type problems with large sources

Gisella Croce, Catherine Lacour, Gérard Michaille (2009)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We show how to capture the gradient concentration of the solutions of Dirichlet-type problems subjected to large sources of order 1 ε concentrated on an ε -neighborhood of a hypersurface of the domain. To this end we define the gradient Young-concentration measures generated by sequences of finite energy and establish a very simple characterization of these measures.

Homogenization of evolution problems for a composite medium with very small and heavy inclusions

Michel Bellieud (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We study the homogenization of parabolic or hyperbolic equations like ρ ε n u ε t n - div ( a ε u ε ) = f in Ω × ( 0 , T ) + boundary conditions , n { 1 , 2 } , when the coefficients ρ ε , a ε (defined in Ø ) take possibly high values on a ε -periodic set of grain-like inclusions of vanishing measure. Memory effects arise in the limit problem.
