Separation of scales and almost-periodic effects in the asymptotic behaviour of perforated periodic media (Q5945969)

It is studied the asymptotic behaviour of highly oscillating functionals in finely perforated domains. In general, the periods of oscillation and of perforation are at different scales. Two types of limit behaviour appear. In the first one there is a separation of scales and the two processes superimpose. For the second one it is a typical interaction of scales in a periodic or almost periodic fashion. In the last case one may not have a unique limit behaviour.
