    We adapt the multiple scale method introduced over 40 years ago for the homogenization of periodic structures [1], to the quasiperiodic (cut-and-projection) setting. We make use of partial differential operators (gradient, divergence and curl) acting on periodic functions of m variables in a higher-dimensional space that are projected onto operators acting on quasiperiodic functions in the n-dimensional physical space (m>n). We replace heterogeneous quasiperiodic structures, coined irrational metamaterials in [2], by homogeneous media with anisotropic permittivity and permeability tensors, obtained from the solution of annex problems of electrostatic type in a periodic cell in higher dimensional space. This approach is valid when the wavelength is much larger than the period of the higher dimensional elementary cell.

    With recent technological advances, quasiperiodic and aperiodic materials present a novel class of metamaterials that possess very unusual, extraordinary properties such as superconductivity, unusual mechanical properties and diffraction patterns, extremely low thermal conductivity, etc. As all these properties critically depend on the microgeometry of the media, the methods that allow characterizing the effective properties of such materials are of paramount importance. In this paper, we analyze the effective properties of a class of multiscale composites consisting of periodic and quasiperiodic phases appearing at different scales. We derive homogenized equations for the effective behavior of the composite and discover a variety of new effects which could have interesting applications in the control of wave and diffusion phenomena.
