In this paper we study homogenization of nonlinear hyperbolic equations. The weak limit of the solutions is investigated by approximating the flux functions with piecewise linear functions. We study mostly Riemann problems for layered velocity fields as well as for the heterogeneous divergence free velocity fields.

Keywords: Homogenization, nonlinear, Riemann, hyperbolic.
