Convergence of MsFEM approximations for elliptic, non-periodic homogenization problems

In this work, we are concerned with the convergence of the multiscale finite element method (MsFEM) for elliptic homogenization problems, where we do not assume a certain periodic or stochastic structure, but an averaging assumption which in particular covers periodic and ergodic stochastic coefficients. We also give a result on the convergence in the case of an arbitrary coupling between grid size H and a parameter ε. ε is an indicator for the size of the fine scale which converges to zero. The findings of this work are based on the homogenization results obtained in [B. Schweizer and M. Veneroni, The needle problem approach to non-periodic homogenization, Netw. Heterog. Media, 6 (4), 2011].
