We homogenize a second-order elliptic system with anisotropic fractal structure
characteristic of many real objects: the cells of periodicity are refined in one direction. This
problem is considered in the rectangle with Dirichlet conditions given on two sides and periodicity conditions on two other sides. An explicit formula for the homogenized operator
is established, and an asymptotic estimate of the remainder is obtained. The accuracy of
approximation depends on the exponent ¿ ¿ (0, 1/2] of smoothness of the right-hand side
with respect to slow variables (the Sobolev¿Slobodetskii space) and is estimated by O(h¿) for ¿ ¿ (0, 1/2) and by O(h1/2(1 + | log h|)) for ¿ = 1/2 .
Key words: elliptic system of second order, anisotropic fractal structure, q-branching function, branching periodicity, Sobolev¿Slobodetskii space, Dirichlet condition.@en
