The present study focuses on the identification of the evolution of the dynamic elasto-plastic properties of Al 5456 FSW welds. An innovative method is proposed to make best use of the data collected with full-field measurements during dynamic experiments, and achieve identification of the mechanical properties of heterogeneous materials without requiring measurement of the load. Compressive specimens have been submitted to high strain-rate loading through a split Hopkinson pressure bar device while displacement fields were obtained using full-field measurement techniques. Two sets of experiments have been performed using two different methods: the grid method and digital image correlation. Afterwards, the identification of the elastic and plastic properties of the material was carried out using the Virtual Fields Method. Finally, identification of the evolution of the yield stress throughout the weld has been achieved for strain-rates of the order of 103 s−1.
