An identification framework is introduced herein to calibrate material parameters at the microscale in order to analyze ductile damage. It is applied to study a dog-bone sample, which is made of spheroidal graphite cast iron, loaded in tension and imaged via in situ microtomography. The region of interest is analyzed via Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) to measure kinematic fields. Finite Element (FE) simulations, which account for the studied microstructure that is explicitly meshed thanks its 3D image, are driven by Dirichlet boundary conditions extracted from DVC measurements. The plastic behavior of the fer-ritic matrix is calibrated via integrated DVC. The three mechanisms of ductile damage are then analyzed in view of the predictions of numerical simulations at the microscopic scale.
