This paper proposes the application of the waveform relaxation method to the
homogenization of multiscale magnetoquasistatic problems. In the monolithic
heterogeneous multiscale method, the nonlinear macroscale problem is solved
using the Newton--Raphson scheme. The resolution of many mesoscale problems per
Gauss point allows to compute the homogenized constitutive law and its
derivative by finite differences. In the proposed approach, the macroscale
problem and the mesoscale problems are weakly coupled and solved separately
using the finite element method on time intervals for several waveform
relaxation iterations. The exchange of information between both problems is
still carried out using the heterogeneous multiscale method. However, the
partial derivatives can now be evaluated exactly by solving only one mesoscale
problem per Gauss point.Comment: submitted to JC
