Hello dear friends!
I need your help! In another thread I hoped that someone can guide me to take a deformed stressed body from one analysis to another and Rick guided me in how to bypass that need. This time I need to use only the deformed geometry from one analysis to another. Can it be done? I don't need stresses, just the deformed geometry resulted from thermal expansion. I need this because in Ansys 16 thermal expansion cannot be used with nonlinear adaptive region.
Thank you!

Thank you Stanum for the idea. I've never used commands manually , APDL, etc only workbench but it seems that this is the next step for me.
