\(L^{2}\)-global to local projection: An approach to multiscale analysis (Q2883364)

The authors propose a global-local method for recovering the microscale features of gradient fields inside heterogeneous media. The approach is based upon the \(L_{2}\) -projection of the homogenized solution onto function spaces spanned by solutions of local problems. The proposed projection framework is general and applies to local domains \(\omega\) on the interior of the domain of interest as well as those touching the boundary. An error analysis is also performed.
