Abstract

We consider the scattering of elastic waves by highly oscillating anisotropic periodic media with bounded support. Applying the two-scale homogenization, we first obtain a constant coefficient second-order partial differential elliptic equation that describes the wave propagation of the effective or overall wave field. We further pursue a higher-order homogenization with the help of complimentary boundary correctors and provide a detailed analysis on the rate of higher-order convergence. Finally we provide preliminary numerical examples to demonstrate the higher-order homogenization.
