A note on Whithams method and the homogenization procedure
Leif Persson, John Andreas Wyller, K. B. Dysthe · Physica Scripta · 1988
The stationary heat conduction problem with a periodic conductivity matrix is studied. An averaged variational principle based on the ideas of Whitham [1] is formulated, that gives results which coincide with those predicted by the homogenization procedure [2].
