In the field of numerical research there are various approaches and methods for structures of porous materials modeling. The solution is the use of fractal models to develop the porous structure. In the case of modeling the geometry of natural (random) materials, there is a problem of compatibility of the FE model geometry and real one. This is a source of differences between the results of calculations and experimental ones. Application of 3D printing technology will allow to receive a real structure in a controlled manner, which exactly reflects the designed structure and is consistent with the geometry of the numerical model. An experimental research on the standard samples made of photopolymer resin using 3D printing technique was presented in the paper. The aim of the research was to determine the base material properties and, consequently, to select the constitutive model, which is necessary to carry out numerical analyses.
