The objective of this paper provides a numerical implementation procedure of thermo-metallurgical-mechanical constitute equation based on additively decomposition of strain rate. Together with phase transformation kinetics, the macro material properties are determined by assigning temperature dependent material properties to each phase and by applying mixture rule to combine. Then the constitute equation is implemented into general purpose implicit finite element program via user material subroutine. The effectiveness of developed computational method is confirmed by a Satoh test simulation. Simulation of Satoh test demonstrates that transformation induce plasticity has significant effect of the evolution of residual stress and can not be neglected for alloy steel during hot working process.
