A Multiscale Finite Element Method for Oscillating Neumann Problem on Rough Domain

We develop a new multiscale finite element method for Laplace equation with oscillating Neumann boundary conditions on rough boundaries. The key point is the introduction of a new boundary condition that incorporates both the microscopically geometrical and physical information of the rough boundary. We prove the method has optimal convergence rate in the energy norm with a weak resonance term for periodic roughness. Numerical results are reported for both periodic and nonperiodic roughness.
