Abstract
AbstractThe objective of the present paper is a formulation of the Heterogeneous Multiscale Finite Element Method (FE‐HMM) for the homogenization of linear elastic solids in a geometrical linear frame, and doing so, for the first time, of a vector‐valued field problem. The macro stiffness is estimated by stiffness sampling on heterogeneous microdomains in terms of a modified quadrature formula, which implies an equivalence of energy densities of the microscale with the macroscale. Existing a‐priori estimates are assessed and used for optimal micro‐macro refinement strategies in the H1‐norm and the L2‐norm. (© 2016 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
