We consider a strongly heterogeneous medium saturated by an incompressible viscous fluid as it appears in geomechanical modeling. This poroelasticity problem suffers from rapidly oscillating material parameters, which calls for a thorough…
When a fluid carrying a passive solute flows quickly through porous media, three key macroscale transport mechanisms occur. These mechanisms are diffusion, advection and dispersion, all of which depend on the microstructure of the porous…

Derivation of macroscopic models for advection-diffusion processes in the presence of dominant heterogeneous (e.g., surface) reactions using homogenisation theory or volume averaging is often deemed unfeasible due to the strong coupling…
We extend the two-scale expansion approach of periodic homogenization to include time scales and thus can tackle the full instationary Navier-Stokes-Cahn-Hilliard model at the pore scale as microscale. Time scale separation allows us to…
In this paper, we discuss a general framework for multicontinuum homogenization. Multicontinuum models are widely used in many applications and some derivations for these models are established. In these models, several macroscopic…
This paper interprets the stabilized finite element method via residual minimization as a variational multiscale method. We approximate the solution to the partial differential equations using two discrete spaces that we build on a…
This paper is devoted to the homogenization of weakly coupled cooperative parabolic systems in strong convection regime with purely periodic coefficients. Our approach is to factor out oscillations from the solution via principal…

In this chapter we describe a selection of mathematical techniques and results that suggest interesting links between the theory of gratings and the theory of homogenization, including a brief introduction to the latter. By no means do we…
We study the Muskat problem on the half-plane, which models motion of an interface between two fluids of distinct densities (e.g., oil and water) in a porous medium (e.g., an aquifer) that sits atop an impermeable layer (e.g., bedrock).…
