Abstract

We study the homogenization of parabolic or hyperbolic equations like \[ \rho_\varepsilon{\partial^n u_\varepsilon\over \partial t^n}- {\rm div}( a_\varepsilon\nabla u_\varepsilon) =f \ \ \hbox{ in } \quad {\O\times(0,T)}+ \ \ \hbox{\rm boundary conditions}, \quad n \in \{1,2\}, \] when the coefficients $\rho_\varepsilon$, $a_\varepsilon$ (defined in Ω) take possibly high values on a ε-periodic set of grain-like inclusions of vanishing measure. Memory effects arise in the limit problem.
