On non-periodic homogenization of time-dependent equations

چکیده
The recently introduced needle problem approach for the homogenization of non-periodic problems was originally designed for the homogenization of elliptic problems. After a short review of the needle problem approach we demonstrate in this note how the stationary results can be transferred to time-dependent problems. The standard parabolic problem of the corresponding heat equation in a heterogeneous material is considered. Furthermore, we include an application to a hysteresis problem which appears in the theory of porous media.

A non-asymptotic homogenization theory for periodic electromagnetic structures.
Homogenization of electromagnetic periodic composites is treated as a two-scale problem and solved by approximating the fields on both scales with eigenmodes that satisfy Maxwell's equations and boundary conditions as accurately as possible. Built into this homogenization methodology is an error indicator whose value characterizes the accuracy of homogenization. The proposed theory allows one t...
متن کاملHomogenization of monotone systems of Hamilton-Jacobi equations
In this paper we study homogenization for a class of monotone systems of first-order time-dependent periodic Hamilton-Jacobi equations. We characterize the Hamiltonians of the limit problem by appropriate cell problems. Hence we show the uniform convergence of the solution of the oscillating systems to the bounded uniformly continuous solution of the homogenized system.

Here we consider some non-autonomous ordinary differential equations of order n and present some results and theorems on the existence of periodic solutions for them, which are sufficient conditions, section 1. Also we include generalizations of these results to vector differential equations and examinations of some practical examples by numerical simulation, section 2. For some special cases t...
متن کاملAcoustic and Filtration Properties of Thermo-elastic porous medium: Biot’s Equations of Thermo-Poroelasticity
A linear system of differential equations describing a joint motion of thermoelastic porous body and incompressible thermofluid occupying porous space is considered. Although the problem is linear, it is very hard to tackle due to the fact that its main differential equations involve non-smooth oscillatory coefficients, both big and small, under the differentiation operators. The rigorous justi...
متن کاملOn time-dependent neutral stochastic evolution equations with a fractional Brownian motion and infinite delays
In this paper, we consider a class of time-dependent neutral stochastic evolution equations with the infinite delay and a fractional Brownian motion in a Hilbert space. We establish the existence and uniqueness of mild solutions for these equations under non-Lipschitz conditions with Lipschitz conditions being considered as a special case. An example is provided to illustrate the theory
