Abstract

In this work we are interested in the asymptotic behavior of a family of solutions of a semilinear elliptic problem with homogeneous Neumann boundary condition defined in a two-dimensional bounded set which degenerates to the unit interval as a positive parameter \({\epsilon}\) goes to zero. Here we also allow that upper and lower boundaries from this singular region present highly oscillatory behavior with different orders and variable profile. Combining results from linear homogenization theory and nonlinear analyzes we get the limit problem showing upper and lower semicontinuity of the solutions at \({\epsilon=0}\).
