Actually, you don't need to define shear modulus. For linear isotropic elastic materials, only two elastic parameters is enough.
You can define your coefficient of thermal expansion in Mechanical -> Expansion.
For the other questions, it should be better to know what is the purpose of your...

As I see, you have problems in the contacts between surface. Try to use the "Translate to" tool in Assembly part and put Clearance 0. So this way, you will be sure that the gap is 0.
I'm trying to do a remeshing using mesh-to-mesh solution mapping. I use restart requests to restart, and it works, the simulation restarts, and the stresses of the previous job are mapped, but when i have a look to the displacement, it is not mapped, all nodes start with 0 of displacement. How...
