This paper concerns the diffusion-homogenization of transport equations when both the adimensionalized scale of the heterogeneities $\alpha$ and the adimensionalized mean-free path $\eps$ converge to 0. When $\alpha=\eps$, it is well known…

Homogenization of the incremental response of grids made up of preloaded elastic rods leads to homogeneous effective continua which may suffer macroscopic instability, occurring at the same time in both the grid and the effective continuum.…

This article studies some numerical approximations of the homogenized matrix for stochastic linear elliptic partial differential equations in divergence form. We focus on the case when the underlying random field is a small perturbation of…
It is well known that the classical energetically consistent micropolar model has limits in simulating the frequency band structure of packed granular materials (see Merkel et al., 2011). It is here shown that if a standard continualization…
