Accelerating the Adaptive Eyre–Milton FFT-based method for infinitely double contrasted media by Dolbeau, Martin, Bleyer, Jérémy, Sab, Karam

“…Sab et al. (2024) have recently proposed an FFT-based iterative algorithm, termed Adaptive Eyre–Milton (AEM), for solving the Lippmann–Schwinger equation in the context of periodic homogenization of infinitely double contrasted linear elastic composites (heterogeneous materials with linear constitutive laws that contain both pores and rigid inclusions). They have demonstrated the unconditional linear convergence of this scheme, regardless of initialization and the chosen reference material. …”
