This work presents an identification strategy of local elastic properties of orthotropic carbon-epoxy laminates for aviation industry. Based on global and local stages of study, this methodology uses the Finite Element Model Updating (FEMU) method as identification technique with simulated kinematic fields corresponding to tensile test response. The aim of this paper is to predict the spatial variation of elastic plane properties and to deduce the localization of damaged zones.
