✦ Synopsis


A numerical homogenization method is presented here to solve problems governed by partial di erential equations with coe cients that are generic functions in R 2 . It consists of a recursive ÿnite elements discretization and an algebraic homogenization. This method takes advantages of speed and memory occupation from the hierarchy of elements and nodes deÿned by the recursive discretization. It turns out that using the state-of-the-art general linear algebra techniques, all non-numerical data manipulations that are typically done before real computations, can be avoided.
