  1. null (Ed.)
    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.
