This paper concerns application of an inverse analysis method for identification of unknown parameters corresponding to load, and material constants of an elastic plate. An extended Kalman filter and the boundary element method are applied to the inverse analysis. The numerical results obtained are discussed. The extended Kalman filter algorithm can estimate state variables of a stochastic system. It is expected that the algorithm is also applicable to analysis of other identification problems for which noisy data are available at some measuring points.
