We study the homogenization of the compressible Navier–Stokes system in a periodic porous medium (of period ε) with Dirichlet boundary conditions. At the limit, we recover different systems depending on the scaling we take. In particular, we rigorously derive the so-called “porous medium equation”.

In the paper a Barenblatt-Biot consolidation model for flows in periodic porous elastic media is derived by means of the two-scale convergence technique. Starting with the fluid flow of a slightly compressible viscous fluid through a two-component poro-elastic medium separated by a periodic interfacial barrier, described by the Biot model of consolidation with the Deresiewicz-Skalak interface boundary condition and assuming that the period is too small compared with the size of the medium, the limiting...

Multiscale stochastic homogenization is studied for convection-diffusion problems. More specifically, we consider the asymptotic behaviour of a sequence of realizations of the form $\partial u_{\epsilon }^{\omega }/\partial t+1/{ϵ}_3𝒞\left(T_3(x/{\epsilon }_3){\omega }_3\right)·\nabla u_{\epsilon }^{\omega }-div\left(\alpha \left(T_1(x/{\epsilon }_1){\omega }_1,T_2(x/{\epsilon }_2){\omega }_2,t\right)\nabla u_{\epsilon }^{\omega }\right)=f$. It is shown, under certain structure assumptions on the random vector field $𝒞\left({\omega }_3\right)$ and the random map $\alpha ({\omega }_1,{\omega }_2,t)$, that the sequence $\left\{u_{ϵ}^{\omega }\right\}$ of solutions converges in the sense of G-convergence of parabolic operators to the solution $u$ of the homogenized problem $\partial u/\partial t-div\left(ℬ\right(t\left)\nabla u\right)=f$.

Motivated by well-driven flow transport in porous media, Chen and Yue proposed a numerical homogenization method for Green function [Multiscale Model. Simul.1 (2003) 260–303]. In that paper, the authors focused on the well pore pressure, so the local error analysis in maximum norm was presented. As a continuation, we will consider a fully discrete scheme and its multiscale error analysis on the velocity field.
