Thermal expansion of cylindrical rod with temperature distribution form heat transfer analysis results. Basic guide for how to run thermo-mechanical problem (thermal expansion stress analysis using the temperature distribution from heat transfer analysis results) in Abaqus 

* The cylindrical rod constrained in axial direction at the both ends can not expand in axial direction with given temperature and CTE material property. Instead of axial expansion, the rod will have the axial compressive stress
