On démontre un théorème d'homogénéisation pour des énergies qui suivent la géométrie d'un pavage apériodique de Penrose. Nos résultats, applicables à des géométries quasicristallines générales, sont obtenus en démontrant que les densités d'énergie correspondantes sont W1 – et donc Besicovitch – quasi-périodiques, de sort que l'on peut appliquer les théorèmes d'homogénéisation de Braides, 1986.

A homogenization theorem is proved for energies which follow the geometry of an a-periodic Penrose tiling. The result is obtained by proving that the corresponding energy densities are W1-almost periodic and hence also Besicovitch almost periodic, so that existing general homogenization theorems can be applied (Braides, 1986). The method applies to general quasicrystalline geometries.
