Abstract
We study the thermal properties of a composite material in which a periodic array of finely mixed perfect thermal conductors is inserted. The suitable model describing the behaviour of such physical materials leads to the so-called equivalued surface boundary value problem. To analyze the overall conductivity of the composite medium (when the size of the inclusions tends to zero), we make use of the homogenization theory, employing the unfolding technique. The peculiarity of the problem under investigation asks for a particular care in developing the unfolding procedure, giving rise to a non-standard two-scale problem.
