A Dissipation Gap Method for full‐field measurement‐based identification of elasto‐plastic material parameters

Abstract

Using enriched data such as displacement fields obtained from digital image correlation is a pathway to the local identification of material parameters. Up to now, most of the identification techniques for nonlinear models are based on Finite Element Updating Methods. This article explains how an appropriate use of the Dissipation Gap Method can help in this context and be an interesting alternative to these classical techniques. The Dissipation Gap Methods rely on the concept of error in dissipation that has been used mainly for the verification of finite element simulations. We provide here an original application of these founding developments to the identification of material parameters for nonlinear behaviors. The proposed technique and especially the main technical keypoint of building the admissible fields are described in detail. The approach is then illustrated through the identification of heterogeneous isotropic elasto-plastic properties. The basic numerical features highlighted through these simple examples demonstrate this approach to be a promising tool for nonlinear identification.

An enhanced response sensitivity approach for structural damage identification: convergence and performance

“…However, problem (7) is often ill-posed and therefore regularization is required. Herein, the Tikhonov regularization [22] is utilized where the regularization term || || 2 with ||·|| denoting the usual L 2 norm, and a small nonnegative (damping) regularization parameter is added to (7). Under this circumstance, the update becomes where I is the identify matrix.…”

“…Geymonat and Pagano [5] set the constitutive relation error (CRE) function as the objective function for linear elastostatic problems and then, a two-step algorithm was proposed to get the constitutive parameters. Later, Feissel and Allix [6] extended the objective function to cope with dynamic tests and Blaysat and Florentin et al [7] generalized the objective function to account for elasto-plastic material parameters. 1233 where d 0 ,ḋ 0 are initial displacement and velocity of the structure and M,C,K are the system mass, damping, and stiffness matrices, respectively.…”

Explosive driven shock tube loading of aluminium plates: experimental study

“…The use of numerical tools to achieve this purpose is undeniably efficient, but a numerical model needs reliable material models and boundary conditions (among other points) in order to accurately predict the behaviour of a structure under blast loading. These material properties can only be derived and validated by experimental testing which can be usual tests in tension, compression, etc., or tests with more complex stress/ strain fields and using an inverse method [1][2][3][4]. The free air detonation of a high-explosive (HE) is a widely used way to generate a blast wave.…”

On the Propagation of Camera Sensor Noise to Displacement Maps Obtained by DIC - an Experimental Study

“…Displacement maps are usual DIC outputs. Such quantities are directly used for observation purposes (e.g., [17]), or are post-processed to characterize constitutive materials (e.g., [3]). It is worth mentioning that any measurement tool, especially in the field of mechanical engineering, begins to be well-founded as soon as its metrological performance is also known.…”
