The proofs within the present work are built by using two-scale convergence tools, and can be viewed as a new slant on previous works of Frénod & Sonnendrücker and Bostan on the 2D finite Larmor Radius model. In a first part, we recall the physical and mathematical contexts. We also recall two main results from previous papers of Frénod & Sonnendrücker and Bostan. Then, we introduce a set of variables which are so-called canonical gyrokinetic coordinates, and we write the Vlasov equation in these new variables. Then, we establish some two-scale convergence and weak-* convergence results.

It is the continuation of the paper (Canot and Frenod Method of homogenization for the study of the propagation of electromagnetic waves in a composite 2017) [7] in which we obtain existence and uniqueness results for the problem, we performed an estimate that allows us to approach homogenization. Techniques of asymptotic expansion and two-scale convergence are used to obtain the homogenized problem. We justify the two-scale expansion numerically in the second part of the paper.

As an exponential integrator, the scheme is able to use large time steps with respect to the typical size of the solution’s fast oscillations. In addition, we show numerically that the method has accurate long time behaviour and that it is asymptotic preserving with respect to the limiting Guiding Center system.

As an exponential integrator, the new scheme allows to use large time steps compared to the size of oscillations in the solution.

Based on an exponential time differencing approach, the scheme is able to use large time steps with respect to the typical size of the fast oscillations of the solution.

The proposed approach consists in estimating the probability of events linked to the drift using Monte Carlo simulations. It couples an averaging method which permits to decrease the computational cost and a statistical method in order to take into account the variability of meteorological loading factors.

This change of coordinates is in fact an intricate succession of mappings that are built using Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations, Differential Geometry, Hamiltonian Dynamical System Theory and Symplectic Geometry, Lie Transforms and a new tool which is here introduced : Partial Lie Sums.

We construct a Two-Scale Numerical Method based on the fact that the solution of the equation which has oscillations Two-Scale converges to the solution of a well-posed problem. This numerical method uses on Fourier series. 1. Introduction. This paper deals with numerical simulations of sand transport problems. Its goal is to build a Two-Scale Numerical Method to simulate dynamics of dunes in tidal area. This paper enters a work program concerning the development of Two-Scale Numerical Methods to solve PDEs with oscillatory singular perturbations linked with physical phenomena. In Ailliot, Frénod and Monbet [2], such a method is used to manage the tide oscillation for long term drift forecast of objects in coastal ocean waters. Frénod, Mouton and Sonnendrücker [5] made simulations of the 1D Euler equation using a Two-Scale Numerical Method. In Frénod, Salvarani and Sonnendrücker [6], such a method is used to simulate a charged particle beam in a periodic focusing channel. Mouton [9, 10] developped a Two-Scale Semi Lagrangian Method for beam and plasma applications. We consider the following model, valid for short-term dynamics of dunes, built and studied in [3]:

This consists in writing the solution of this equation as a sum of two oscillating functions with circumscribed oscillations. The first of these functions has a shape which is close to the shape of the two-scale limit of the solution and the second one is a correction built to offset this imposed shape. The aim of such a decomposition is to be the starting point for the construction of two-scale asymptotic-preserving schemes.

After proving the convergence to the correct asymptotic state, we develop a numerical method for solving the limit model involving two time scales and validate its efficiency for the simulation of long time beam evolution.

These models are essentially non linear hyperbolic systems of PDE involving a small parameter. Then from the models we extract a simplified and nevertheless typical one for which we prove that its classical solution exists on a time interval which is independent of the small parameter. We then show that the solution weak− * converges as the small parameter goes to zero and we characterize the equation satisfied by the weak− * limit.

They are models that are degenerated parabolic equations which are, moreover, singularly perturbed. We, then give an existence and uniqueness result for the short-term and mean-term models. This result is based on a time-space periodic solution existence result for degenerated parabolic equation that we set out. Finally the short-term model is homogenized.
