Summary: Heterogeneous multiscale methods (HMM) have been introduced by Weinan E and B. Engquist [Commun. Math. Sci. 1, No. 1, 87–132 (2003; Zbl 1093.35012)] as a general methodology for the numerical computation of problems with multiple scales. In this paper we discuss finite element methods based on the HMM for multiscale partial differential equations (PDEs). We give numerous examples of such multiscale problems, including elliptic, parabolic and advection diffusion problems and discuss several applications in areas such as porous media flow, biology and material sciences. A detailed analysis of the methods as well as recent developments are discussed.
