We study the homogenization of a certain linear hyperbolic-parabolic problem exhibiting two rapid spatial scales {ε; ε²}. The homogenization is performed by means of evolution multiscale convergence, a generalization of the concept of two-scale convergence to include any number of scales in both space and time. In particular we apply a compactness result for gradients. The outcome of the homogenization procedure is that we obtain a homogenized problem of hyperbolic-parabolic type together with two elliptic local problems, one for each rapid scale, for the correctors.
