- We investigate the inverse problem of determining nonlinear elastic material parameters from boundary stress measurements corresponding to prescribed boundary displacements. The material law is described by a nonlinear, space-independent elastic tensor depending on both the displacement and the strain, and gives rise to a general class of quasilinear Lamé systems. We prove the unique and stable recovery of a wide class of space-independent nonlinear elastic tensors, including the identification of two nonlinear isotropic Lamé moduli as well as certain anisotropic tensors. The boundary measurements are assumed to be available at a finite number of boundary points and, in the isotropic case, at a single point. Moreover, the measurements are generated by boundary displacements belonging to an explicit class of affine functions. The analysis is based on structural properties of nonlinear Lamé systems, including asymptotic expansions of the boundary stress and tensorial calculus.
