The application of nonlinear material models of concrete within numerical simulations focused on the design of safer and more economical protective concrete structures is currently the subject of investigation of many scientific researchers. However, one basic problem related to the nonlinear modelling of concrete is that very often there is a lack of knowledge about the material model parameters whose values must be defined. The solution to this problem can be what is termed inverse parameter identification, an approach which is presented in this paper. Specifically, the material parameters of the Continuous Surface Cap Model for concrete are identified within this paper using optimisation algorithms. The subsequent comparison of parameter identification results with experimental data shows the precision of the presented approach.
