The pursuit to reduce manufacturing costs and increase product quality has led industries to use commercial codes and appropriate material models to simulate a wide range of metal forming operations. This scenario has prompted a healthy discussion on the strategies to obtaining constitutive parameters able to yield accurate numerical predictions. Optimization‐based parameter identification techniques have opened completely new routes to determine material parameters for this class of forming problems. Notwithstanding, the most appropriate optimization strategy (or development of new ones) for the trinomial forming operation – constitutive model – constitutive parameters is still open to debate. This work highlights the important role that optimization strategies play to determine parameters of constitutive models. A brief description of gradient‐based, gradient‐free and hybrid optimization approaches is presented within the framework of parameter identification. Comparative studies and applications to classical and damaged material models are also discussed.
