A method to simulate the forging process and corresponding strain-induced austenitic-martensite phase transformation is formulated in the Eulerian description and its feasibility is examined. The method uses finite volume meshes for tracking material deformation and an automatically refined facet surface to accurately trace the free surface of the deforming material. By means of this finite volume method, an approach has been developed in the framework of metallo-thermo-mechanics to simulate metallic structure, temperature and stress/strain in the forging process associated with phase transformation. The incremental expression on the formulation of the kinetics equation is derived from Tsuta and Cortes' model. A mixture rule is adopted to evaluate the aggregate flow stress of the austenite-martensite affected by the respective flow stresses and phase transformation. This approach has been implemented in the commercial computer program MSC. SuperForge. This is the first report in which the fundamental framework is stated and the applicability of the developed method is confirmed using experimental results of the forging of a cylindrical billet. Some practical forging applications are demonstrated in the second report.
