: Or recurring. Both those verbs can apply to space, as well as time. And the verbal "repeating / recurring" go better with "periodically" than "repetitive" or "recurrent" do.

or recursive
I think Natalie's is better, but I offer another possibility. These occur normally in a mathematical context, but since the mathematical iteration is reflected in nature, it might be appropriate.

Discussion
Если говорить о конкретном предложении, то звучит оно так:
"Использование тригонометрических полиномов – один из способов получения периодических функций на всем интервале (0, L), если задана форма периодически повторяющегося элемента на подинтервале (0, 2l)."
Хотя формулировка "периодически повторяющийся элемент" встречалась у меня и в других контекстах, поэтому я и попытался задать вопрос "в общем виде".
Несмотря на внешнюю простоту вопроса, варианты таких переводов не очевидны - в противном случае Вы сами бы справились
