Rule of mixtures is a weighted mean used to predict various properties of a composite material. The formula is given by:

Where:
- Ecomposite​ is the Young’s Modulus of the composite material.
- Vf​ is the volume fraction of the reinforcement.
- Ereinforcement​ is the Young’s Modulus of the reinforcement material.
- Vm​ is the volume fraction of the matrix.
- Ematrix​ is the Young’s Modulus of the matrix material.
