Structures made of unidirectionally fibre-reinforced composites are examined. Composite constituents’ elastic constants in a micro scale are identified on the basis of measurements performed in a macro scale. Numerical homogenization methods using a representative volume element are employed. Static (displacements in sensor points) and dynamic (eigenfrequencies) data are considered as measurements. Ideal and disturbed measurements are taken into account. Computational intelligence methods in the form of evolutionary algorithms and artificial immune systems are used to perform the identification procedure. Finite element method is used to solve the boundary-value problem for composites in both scales. Numerical examples presenting the effectiveness of the proposed approach are attached. Statistical data are considered to compare the efficiency of the identification procedure for both algorithms and different measurement data.
