Abstract
In the process of model parameter identification, the structural boundary conditions play a major role. Depending on the assumed support conditions, the searched parameter can change drastically. This fact can become problematic when particular experiments are designed for validation purposes. The present study proposes a numerical formulation for better understanding the effects that slight support perturbations can cause. For this end, a model updating scheme is proposed as an optimization problem based on the Constitutive Relation Error theory. The forward mechanical problem relies on the Boundary Element Method. Then, a series of controlled perturbations is utilized to verify the detrimental effects on the cost function that guides the identification. The preliminary results show two kind of perturbations with distinct impacts. One of them does not affect the identification process. The other one can degenerate completely the convergence process.
