The research begins by establishing a multi-level amplification program that incorporates a homogenization process. The findings reveal that, for a W/H ratio of 0.5, the strength reduction aligns consistently with empirical equations. A notable observation is that when W/H is less than or equal to 1.0, there is good agreement, but when W/H exceeds 1.0, there is a tendency to overestimate pillar strength. Subsequent investigations emphasize the significance of considering pillar development in the overall assessment of pillar forces. The study underscores the importance of integrating pillar development into the analysis, aligning with previously established research results.
