Simulation tools, like the finite element method, are essential to design and optimise sheet metal forming processes. The success of these tools is dependent on the calibration of the constitutive model. Relying on full-field measurements, heterogeneous tests, and inverse methods have become a new concept of calibration. This thesis aims the enhancement of the calibration process of thermomechanical constitutive models based on this new concept. An overview of four inverse methods, the Finite Element Model Updating (FEMU), the Constitutive Equation Gap Method, the Equilibrium Gap Method, and the Virtual Fields Method (VFM) is presented. These methods are compared in the framework of infinitesimal strains, for elasticity and plasticity. Furt...
