TL;DR: In this paper , the boundary value problem for a singularly perturbed system of differential algebraic equations of the second order was studied and the sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of a solution of the boundaryvalue problem for system of DAs were found.
Abstract: This paper deals with the boundary value problem for a singularly perturbed system of differential algebraic equations of the second order. The case of simple roots of the characteristic equation is studied. The sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of a solution of the boundary value problem for system of differential algebraic equations are found. Technique of constructing the asymptotic solutions is developed.

TL;DR: Some of the greatest scientists including Poisson, Faraday, Maxwell, Rayleigh, and Einstein have contributed to the theory of composite materials Mathematically, it is the study of partial differential equations with rapid oscillations in their coefficients Although extensively studied for more than a hundred years, an explosion of ideas in the last five decades has dramatically increased our understanding of the relationship between the properties of the constituent materials, the underlying microstructure of a composite, and the overall effective moduli which govern the macroscopic behavior as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Some of the greatest scientists including Poisson, Faraday, Maxwell, Rayleigh, and Einstein have contributed to the theory of composite materials Mathematically, it is the study of partial differential equations with rapid oscillations in their coefficients Although extensively studied for more than a hundred years, an explosion of ideas in the last five decades (and particularly in the last three decades) has dramatically increased our understanding of the relationship between the properties of the constituent materials, the underlying microstructure of a composite, and the overall effective (electrical, thermal, elastic) moduli which govern the macroscopic behavior This renaissance has been fueled by the technological need for improving our knowledge base of composites, by the advance of the underlying mathematical theory of homogenization, by the discovery of new variational principles, by the recognition of how important the subject is to solving structural optimization problems, and by the realization of the connection with the mathematical problem of quasiconvexification This 2002 book surveys these exciting developments at the frontier of mathematics

Abstract: The heterogeneous multiscale method (HMM), a general framework for designing multiscale algorithms, is reviewed. Emphasis is given to the error analysis that comes naturally with the framework. Examples of finite element and finite difference HMM are presented. Applications to dynamical systems and stochastic simulation algorithms with multiple time scales, spall fracture and heat conduction in microprocessors are discussed.

Abstract: We consider the integral functional under non-standard growth assumptions that we call p(x) type: namely, we assume that a relevant model case being the functional Under sharp assumptions on the continuous function p(x)>1 we prove regularity of minimizers. Energies exhibiting this growth appear in several models from mathematical physics.
