A Fourier-series-based virtual fields method for the identification of 2-D stiffness distributions

The virtual fields method (VFM) is a powerful technique for the calculation of spatial distributions of material properties from experimentally determined displacement fields. A Fourier-series-based extension to the VFM (the F-VFM) is presented here, in which the unknown stiffness distribution is pa...
