This paper generalises the notion of two-scale convergence to the case of multiple separated scales of periodic oscillations. It allows us to introduce a multi-scale convergence method for the reiterated homogenisation of partial differential equations with oscillating coefficients. This new method is applied to a model problem with a finite or infinite number of microscopic scales, namely the homogenisation of the heat equation in a composite material. Finally, it is generalised to handle the homogenisation of the Neumann problem in a perforated domain.

The aim of this contribution is mainly twofold. First, the stochastic two-scale convergence in the mean developed by Bourgeat et al. [13] is used to derive the macroscopic models of: (i) diffusion in random porous medium, (ii) nonstationary flow of Stokesian fluid through random linear elastic porous medium. Second, the multi-scale convergence method developed by Allaire and Briane [7] for the case of several microperiodic scales is extended to random distribution of heterogeneities characterized by separated scales (stochastic reiterated homogenization). .

In this paper, we study the Moderate Deviation Principle for a perturbed stochastic heat equation in the whole space [Formula: see text]. This equation is driven by a Gaussian noise, white in time and correlated in space, and the differential operator is a fractional derivative operator. The weak convergence method plays an important role.

In this paper, we shall study systems governed by the Neumann problem of second-order elliptic equation with rapidly oscillating coefficients and with control and observations on the boundary. The multiscale asymptotic expansions of the solution for considering problem in the case without any constraints, and homogenized equation in the case with constraints will be given, their rigorous proofs will also be proposed.

The two-scale asymptotic expression and error estimations based on two-scale analysis (TSA) are presented for the solution of the increment of temperature and the displacement of a composite structure with small periodic configurations under coupled thermoelasticity condition in a perforated domain. The two-scale coupled relation between the increment of temperature and displacement is established.The multi-scale finite element algorithms corresponding to TSA are described and numerical results are presented.

We review recent results on the homogenization in Sobolev spaces with variable exponents. In particular, we are dealing with the Γ-convergence of variational functionals with rapidly oscillating coefficients, the homogenization of the Dirichlet and Neumann variational problems in strongly perforated domains, as well as double porosity type problems. The growth functions also depend on the small parameter characterizing the scale of the microstructure. The homogenization results are obtained by the method of local energy characteristics. We also consider a parabolic double porosity type problem, which is studied by combining the variational homogenization approach and the two-scale convergence method. Results are illustrated with periodic examples, and the problem of stability in homogenization is discussed.

In this study, the strain fields on two different length scales in a particulate composite material containing hard particles embedded in a rubbery matrix were investigated, using two different techniques. The experimental results were analyzed and are discussed.
