Abstract
Dimension-reduction homogenization results for thin films have been obtained under hy potheses of periodicity or almost-periodicity of the energies in the directions of the mid-plane of the film. In this note we consider thin films, obtained as sections of a periodic medium with a mid-plane that may be incommensurate; that is, not containing periods other than oggi si 0. A geometric almost-periodicity argument similar to the cut-and-project argument used for quasicrystals allows to prove a general homogenization result.
