When manufacturing, it is necessary to know the parameters of the material, which can be identified using inverse identification—one of these methods is the virtual field method. This method is based on virtual fields, which can be used to calculate material parameters. The master’s thesis presents the concept of automated generation and testing of virtual fields using numerical simulations of different samples in Abaqus. The evaluation of fields is based on the calculation of the external and internal virtual work using the Piola-Kirchhoff first-order stress tensor and the reference configuration
of the sample. The results of testing samples with temperature loading of the finite element model are presented. For each sample, the internal and external work was calculated, and based on the ratio of these parts, it was determined whether the created virtual field is suitable for use in the calculation of material parameters. The presented concept enables the creation and testing of a large number of virtual fields, and the work calculations can enable a more efficient approach to selecting more suitable fields.
