Fig. 7

Young’s moduli of RGD8530-DM and VeroClear multimaterials, measurements are shown as boxplots. The FEM simulations for different mixture ratios are indicated. The contact stiffness between the inclusion and the matrix (\(F_A\)) is assumed to be \(2.2\frac{\textrm{TN}}{\textrm{m}^3}\), and the edge radius \(r=220\,\upmu\)m. The second FEM simulation assumed ideally bonded contacts between inclusion and matrix. The red lines indicate the results from the multimaterial homogenization method. The reference line connects the mean values of the primary materials, showing a volume averaged mean value
