Numerical Approaches

Abstract

The present chapter is an introduction to computational approaches for multiscale problems such as (1). We successively discuss herein three different categories of methods. The first method is a direct application of homogenization theory. The second method, multiscale approaches, uses homogenization theory as a guideline to design an efficient computational approach. The third method is designed as a way to address random settings that are close to nice deterministic (say, periodic) settings.
