We consider a homogeneous medium reinforced with a epsilon -periodic lattic
e of high conductivity cylinders of radius epsilonr(epsilon). This fibered
structure is distant of d(epsilon) > 0 from the boundary of the homogeneous
medium. We study the nonlocal asymptotic behavior of the composite medium.
According to the limit of the ratio d(epsilon)/r(epsilon)(2), we obtain di
fferent boundary conditions satisfied by the Green function of the nonlocal
term. (C) 2001 Academie des sciences/Editions scientifiques et medicales E
