We study the homogenization of a parabolic equation with oscillations in both space and time in the coefficient ax/ε, t/ε2 in the elliptic part and spatial oscillations in the coefficient ρ x/ε that ε is multiplied with the time derivative ∂tu . We obtain a strange term in the local problem. This phenomenon appears as a consequence of the combination of the spatial oscillation in ρ x/ε and the temporal oscillation in ax/ε, t/ε2 and disappears if either of these oscillations is removed. 1.
