Asymptotic behaviour of viscoelastic composites with almost periodic microstructures

In this paper we study the acoustic properties of porous media saturated by an incompressible viscoelastic fluid. The model considered here consists of a linear deformable porous skeleton having memory that is surrounded by a viscoelastic Oldroyd fluid. Assuming the microstructures to be almost periodically distributed and under the almost periodicity hypothesis on the coefficients of the governing equations, we determine the macroscopic equivalent medium. To achieve our goal, we use some very recent tools about the sigma convergence of convolution sequences.
