We consider here the wave equation in a (not necessarily periodic) perforated domain, with a Neumann condition on the boundary of the holes. Assuming $H^0$-convergence ([3]) on the elliptic part of the operator, we prove two main theorems: a convergence result and a corrector one. To prove the corrector result, we make use of a suitable family of elliptic local correctors given in [4] whose columns are piecewise locally square integrable gradients. As in the case without holes ([2]), some additional assumptions on the data are needed.

Abstract
We consider here the wave equation in a (not necessarily periodic) perforated domain, with a Neumann condition on the boundary of the holes. Assuming $H^0$-convergence ([3]) on the elliptic part of the operator, we prove two main theorems: a convergence result and a corrector one. To prove the corrector result, we make use of a suitable family of elliptic local correctors given in [4] whose columns are piecewise locally square integrable gradients. As in the case without holes ([2]), some additional assumptions on the data are needed.
