Infinite dimensions are not possible without tricks since FEM requires the entire space to be divided into a finite number of elements.

Often you use some physical argument that allows to reduce the size of the geometry and provide a proper treatment of the changes, for instance introduction of borders or a coordinate transformation.

I imagine that you could use a finite piece with a periodic condition at the borders. But your problem is not very well described to be sure about this.

Dear Martijn how we can introduce coordinate transformation.

It depends. What transformation are you looking for?
