Some remarks on two-scale convergence and periodic unfolding
Jan Franců, Nils Svanstedt · Applications of Mathematics · 2012
The paper discusses some aspects of the adjoint definition of two-scale convergence based on periodic unfolding. As is known this approach removes problems concerning choice of the appropriate space for admissible test functions. The paper proposes a modified unfolding which conserves integral of the unfolded function and hence simplifies the proofs and its application in homogenization theory. The article provides also a self-contained introduction to two-scale convergence and gives ideas for generalization to non-periodic homogenization.
