T-coercivity for the asymptotic analysis of scalar problems with sign-changing coefficients in thin periodic domains

Abstract

International audienceWe study a scalar problem in thin periodic composite media formed by two materials, a classical one and a metamaterial (also known as negative material). By applying T-coercivity methods and homogenization techniques specific to the thin periodic domains under consideration, for two geometric settings, we derive the homogenized limit problems, which both exhibit dimension-reduction effects
