Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study the homogenization of a diffusion process which takes place in a binary structure made by an ambient connected phase surrounding the suspensions (very small particles of diameter of order εδ) distributed in an ε-periodic network. Using the periodic unfolding method introduced in [4], in the critical case, when ε and δ go to 0 we determine the asymptotic behavior of the solution of an evolution problem.

KEY WORDS: evolution problem, homogenization, strange term, binary structure Mathematics Subject Classification (2010): 35A01, 74Q10, 74Q15, 76M50.

1 Introduction

This article is devoted to describing the asymptotic behavior of an evolution problem which governs the diffusion process of a rarefied binary structure. The problem is given by (4.1) with assumptions (4.2)-(4.3) and (5.7). In this problem, the first constant a

ε,δ

repre- sents the mass density of the suspensions while the second one b

ε,δ

is their diffusivity. The parameter δ is the size order of the suspensions in the reference cell Y and ε is the periodicity length. The critical case lim

(ε,δ)→(0,0)

δ

N−2

2

∈ (0, +∞) is considered.

This problem was first treated in a paper of Bentalha and al. (see [6]) in 2006 . In this ar-

ticle, the authors investigate the case of a diffusivity b

ε,δ

going to infinity, the suspensions

being spheres. They use the control zone method. One year later, Gruais (see [7]) study the

stationary problem making the assumption lim

(ε,δ)→(0,0)

b

ε,δ

= lim

(ε,δ)→(0,0)

δ

N

ε,δ

= 1. She

use a multiple scale method. The same year, using again the control zone method Gruais and

Poliˇ sevski find the limit problem in the case lim

(ε,δ)→(0,0)

b

ε,δ

< +∞ (see [8]) .

(3)

In the present paper, we revisit the evolution problem (4.1) with the periodic unfolding method introduced in [4], but we focus our attention in the most interesting case: namely the critical case with lim

(ε,δ)→(0,0)

b

ε,δ

∈ (0, +∞) and lim

(ε,δ)→(0,0)

δ

N

a

ε,δ

∈ (0, +∞) (see assumptions (5.7)).

The periodic unfolding method is a general tool to study periodic homogenization. Nowa- days, this method is used in a lot of new papers since it is a simple way to replace the two-scale convergence by a convergence in a fixed domain: via T

ε

in Ω × Y (where Y is the reference periodic cell) or via T

ε,δ

in Ω × R

N

.

The paper is organized as follows. Section 2 contains the main notations regarding the structure. In Section 3, we recall the definitions of some unfolding operators (T

ε

, T

ε,δ

and M

ε

) and we also recall the main results concerning T

ε,δ

(Lemmas 3.1 and 3.2).

In Section 4, we present the evolution problem in its variational formulation (4.4). Then, the total energy estimate (4.5) allows to introduce the assumptions on the data (4.6)-(4.7)-(5.8).

In Section 5, transforming the solution of the evolution problem with the operator T

ε,δ

leads to the assumptions on the two small parameters ε and δ and on a

ε,δ

, b

ε,δ

(see (5.7)).

Theorem (6.1) in Section 6 gives the unfolded limit problem. Here, it is worth to note that for the first time the limit evolution problem in its variational form is first posed in Ω × R

N

.

In the last section, using the Laplace transform we give the homogenized limit problem (Theorem 7.2). The limit equation differs from the initial one (4.1) regarding the convolution term, this new term accounting for the memory effects is here in fact a ”strange term” (see [2]).

Before proving the unfolded limit problem, we introduce and prove three lemmas. The first one concerns a density result, the second one gives a convergence result for functions vanishing in B

ε,δ

and the last one introduces a test function.

Since the open set B is bounded, there exists η

0

> 0 such that 2η

0

B ⊂ Y .

Lemma 6.2. The set

[

η∈(0,η0]

n

ψ ∈ H

per1

(Y ) | ψ

|ηB

= 0 o

is dense in H

per1

(Y ).

(12)

Proof. We prove the lemma in two steps. In the first one we choose an element in C

per

(Y ) and in the second one we investigate the general case.

Step 1. We fix a function χ in C

( R

N

) satisfying χ = 0 on B,

χ = 1 on R

N

\ 2B,

χ(x) ∈ [0, 1] for all x ∈ R

N

.

(6.4)

For η ∈ (0, η

0

], set

χ

η

= χ · η

.

For any φ ∈ C

per

(Y ), denote φ

η

= χ

η

φ. Since χ

η

= 1 on ∂Y , the function φ

η

belongs to H

per1

(Y ). We have φ

η

= φ on Y \ 2B and ∇φ

η

= ∇φχ

Since φ belongs to C

per

(Y ) and the measure of ηB goes to zero, one obtains the strong con- vergence of φ

η

to φ in H

per1

(Y ).

Step 2. Let ψ be in H

per1

(Y ). The space C

per

(Y ) is dense in H

per1

(Y ). Hence for any ε > 0 there exists ϕ ∈ C

per

(Y ) such that

kψ − ϕk

H1(Y)

≤ ε. (6.5)

We fix a function ϕ satisfying (6.5). From Step 1, there exists η

1

> 0 such that

∀η ∈ (0, η

The lemma is proved.

Lemma 6.3. Suppose p ∈ [1, +∞). For any w ∈ L

Proof. Step 1. We prove (6.7) for w ∈ L

Step 2. We prove (6.7) for w ∈ L

p

(Ω).

Let w be in L

p

(Ω). Since C(Ω) is dense in L

p

(Ω), p ∈ [1, ∞), for any ε

(6.9)

The function ψ

ψ

2

(Ω). (6.10)

Proof. There exists R > 0 such that the support of ∇

z

ψ is included in the ball B (O; R). For δ small enough B(O; δR) ⊂ Y . We perform a change of variables and we use the fact that ψ − ψ(∞) belongs to H

Hence, we get the strong convergence (6.10).

Proof of Theorem 6.1. First observe that Problem (6.2) has a unique solution U belonging to L

2

(0, T ; L). It is a consequence of the Faedo-Galerkin’s method which also gives the equality (6.3). This will imply the convergence of the full sequences in (4.12), (5.9) and (5.10). It is therefore enough to obtain the limit Problem (6.2) for a subsequence, which we do below.

The aim of the three first steps is to obtain the variational formulation (6.20) of the limit problem. Then, in the last step we prove that U (·, ·, ∞) ∈ H

1

(0, T ; H

−1

(Ω)) and U ∈ H

(0, T ; L

(Ω; (H

)).

Step 1. Let (φ, w) be in C

1

([0, T ]) × D(Ω) such that φ(T ) = 0. Taking φ(t)w(x) as test function in (4.4) and then integrating by parts lead to

( R

) such that the support of ∇

z

ψ is bounded. In (4.4) we take as test function φ(t)w(x)ψ

ε,δ

(x), where ψ

ε,δ

is given by (6.9).

If δ is small enough the function ψ

ε,δ

is constant (and equal to ψ(∞)) on the boundary of the cells εξ +εY (ξ ∈ Ξ

For any Ψ ∈ H

Now, in order to estimate θ b

we consider a function ϑ ∈ H ∩ C

ϑ has a compact support. (7.4) The function θ b

We express U b (p) in terms of θ b

(p), θ b

(p), ϑ and u(p). To do that, observe that the Laplace b transform b u(p) of u is in fact U b (p, ·, ∞). Hence, we have

U(p, x, z) = b u(p, x)b b θ

Here again, the Faedo-Galerkin’s method gives the existence and uniqueness of the solutions of the two above evolution equations. Proceeding as in Theorem 6.1 we show that θ

(0, T ; L

(Ω; (H

Lemma 7.1. Set

We have

Θ

0

(0, T ; L

(Ω)), Θ

∈ H

(0, T ).

Moreover, the function Θ

2

does not depend on the choice of the function ϑ.

Proof. Since θ

∈ L

2

(Ω

× B) we obtain Θ

0

∈ L

2

(Ω

) (as a consequence of the Cauchy-

Schwarz inequality and the Fubini’s theorem). Choosing 1−ϑ as test function in (7.7) (observe

(21)

that 1 − ϑ ∈ .

and the above equalities (7.9) yield dΘ

(Ω

). As a consequence Θ

0

belongs to H

(0, T ; L

2

(Ω)). Proceeding in the same way gives Θ

∈ H

(0, T ).

Denote Θ b

the Laplace transform of Θ

It follows that Θ
