AB - The purpose of this dissertation is to define a new experimental methodology to identify the information that can be obtained during drilling operations that can be used in different fields of application. The points that will be addressed are an outline of the different phases of the experiment and of the simulation, and a description of the methodologies of inverse analysis relevant to parameter identification. Different specific applications will need different numerical models to perform parameters identification: the computational model that describes the behaviour of concrete, for instance, is obviously very different from the one needed to describe multiphase geological material. This made it necessary to focus on a specific application: the diagnostic of structures subjected to structural deterioration, such as concrete dams. A numerical model that best represented the experiment for this specific application has been studied, and through that model the experimental equipment has been optimised, by comparing computational simulations. Through the experimental phases that will be defined and the process of inverse analysis, the elastic parameters, state of stress before the excavation, the plastic and fracture parameter of the structure can be evaluated.
