Homogenization of quasiperiodic structures and two-scale cut-and-projection convergence

Abstract

Quasiperiodic arrangements of the constitutive materials in composites result in effective properties with very unusual electromagnetic and elastic properties. The paper discusses the cut-and-projection method that is used to characterize effective properties of quasiperiodic materials. Characterization of cut-and-projection convergence limits of partial differential operators is presented, and correctors are established. We provide the proofs of the results announced in (Wellander et al., 2018) and give further examples. Applications to problems of interest in physics include electrostatic, elastostatic and quasistatic magnetic cases.
