Parameter estimation for modern viscoplastic constitutive models often requires data from many tests. Sensitivity coefficients can be used to design an efficient test matrix and reduce testing requirements. The present study derives sensitivity coefficients for each model parameter in the Munson-Dawson constitutive model and evaluates them for several load histories.
