Abstract

The implementation of a generalized Finite Element Method (FEM) for problems with coefficients or geometry that oscillate locally at a small length scale ϵ≪1 is described. Two-scale FE-spaces are combined conformingly with standard FE. Numerical experiments show that the complexity of the algorithm is independent of the micro length scale ϵ.
