Non-intrusive implementation of Multiscale Finite Element Methods: an illustrative example
Multiscale Finite Element Methods (MsFEM) are finite element type approaches dedicated to multiscale problems. They first compute local, oscillatory, problem-dependent basis functions which generate a specific discretization space, and next perform a Galerkin approximation of the problem on that space. We investigate here how these approaches can be implemented in a non-intrusive way, in order to facilitate their dissemination within industrial codes or non academic environments.
