Numerical Homogenization
Numerical homogenization refers to a class of numerical methods for PDEs with multiscale data aiming at the determination of macroscopic (effective) approximations that account for the complexity of the microstructure. The possible added value of computational homogenization when compared with classical analytical techniques is its applicability, reliability, and accuracy in the absence of strong (unrealistic) assumptions such as periodicity and scale separation. We are developing new methods with the aims of efficiency and reliability for representative classes of multiscale problems in the context of high-contrast, strong anisotropy and uncertainty.
