Homogenization of Periodically Varying Coefficients in Electromagnetic Materials

چکیده
In this paper we employ the periodic unfolding method for simulating the electromagnetic field in a composite material exhibiting heterogeneous microstructures which are described by spatially periodic parameters. We consider cell problems to calculate the effective parameters for a Debye dielectric medium in the cases of circular and square microstructures in two dimensions. We assume that the composite materials are quasi-static in nature, i.e., the wavelength of the electromagnetic field is much larger than the relevant dimensions of the microstructure.

Two-scale homogenization of piezoelectric perforated structures
We are interested in the homogenization of elastic-electric coupling equation, with rapidly oscillating coefficients, in periodically perforated piezoelectric body. We justify the two first terms in the usual asymptotic development of the problem solution. For the main convergence results of this paper, we use the notion of two-scale convergence. A two-scale homogenized system is obtained as th...
متن کاملHomogenization of metamaterials by field averaging (invited paper)
Over the past several years, metamaterials have been introduced and rapidly been adopted as a means of achieving unique electromagnetic material response. In metamaterials, artificially structured—often periodically positioned—inclusions replace the atoms and molecules of conventional materials. The scale of these inclusions is smaller than that of the electromagnetic wavelength of interest, so...
متن کاملHomogenization of Integral Energies under Periodically Oscillating Differential Constraints
A homogenization result for a family of integral energies uε 7→ ˆ Ω f(uε(x)) dx, ε → 0, is presented, where the fields uε are subjected to periodic first order oscillating differential constraints in divergence form. The work is based on the theory of A -quasiconvexity with variable coefficients and on twoscale convergence techniques.
متن کاملHomogenization of Periodic Structures via Bloch Decomposition
In this paper, the classical problem of homogenization of elliptic operators in arbitrary domains with periodically oscillating coefficients is considered. Using Bloch wave decomposition, a new proof of convergence is furnished. It sheds new light and offers an alternate way to view the classical results. In a natural way, this method leads us to work in the Fourier space and thus in a framewor...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Homogenization: the Uncertainty Principle and Its Numerical Verification
The effective permeability of electromagnetic metamaterials can deviate significantly from unity at high frequencies – an intriguing property not available in natural materials. However, we show both analytically and numerically that this artificial magnetism has limitations: the stronger the magnetic response, the less accurate the homogenization. New computational aspects of the paper include...
