Abstract
Identification of the elastoplastic material model for C–Mn steel, using finite element model of micro-indentation test developed by the authors and proposed algorithm of inverse analysis, is one of the objectives of the project. The micro-indentation experiment is widely described in the present paper, especially those parts, which are meaningful in getting input data for direct, further application in the numerical model of micro-indentation test and in the inverse procedure. Finite element solution connected with the inverse algorithm, which is based on the simplex method, is used to search for the unknown parameters of material model. Validation of the developed inverse algorithm is the particular objective of the present work. The present paper shows that material model determined using the inverse analysis is in agreement with that obtained from the tensile test. The results coincide also with the data available in the literature.
