Abstract: For a composite containing one isotropic elastic material, with positive Lame moduli, and void, with the elastic material occupying a prescribed volume fraction $f$, and with the composite being subject to an average stress, ${sigma}^0$, Gibiansky, Cherkaev, and Allaire provided a sharp lower bound $W_f({sigma}^0)$ on the minimum compliance energy $sigm{a}^0:epsilo{n}^0$, in which ${epsilon}^0$ is the average strain. Here we show these bounds also provide sharp bounds on the possible $({sigma}^0,{epsilon}^0)$-pairs that can coexist in such composites, and thus solve the weak $G$-closure problem for $3d$-printed materials. The materials we use to achieve the extremal $(sigm{a}^0,epsilo{n}^0)$-pairs are denoted as near optimal pentamodes. We also consider two-phase composites containing this isotropic elasticity material and a rigid phase with the elastic material occupying a prescribed volume fraction $f$, and with the composite being subject to an average strain, $epsilo{n}^0$. For such composites, Allaire and Kohn provided a sharp lower bound $widetilde{W}_f({epsilon}^0)$ on the minimum elastic energy $sigm{a}^0:epsilo{n}^0$. We show that these bounds also provide sharp bounds on the possible $({sigma}^0,{epsilon}^0)$-pairs that can coexist in such composites of the elastic and rigid phases, and thus solve the weak $G$-closure problem in this case too. The materials we use to achieve these extremal $({sigma}^0,{epsilon}^0)$-pairs are denoted as near optimal unimodes.
