Hi,
If you define 't' as a parameter with a certain value under Parameters, you can solve a stationary problem where there are formal time dependencies.
This technique can also be used for solving a transient thermal-structural one-way coupled problem:
1. First solve the transient heat transfer problem.
2. With an auxiliary sweep over the parameter 't', solve a set of stationary structural mechanics problems.
Such an approach is far more effective than solving for both physics interfaces within the transient time stepping.

Henrik

Hi Henrik,
I appreciate your help, however, I am not sure if I have a correct understanding with your suggestion, and the results of "temperature distribution"seems weird. Could you please help me check the model attached, Thanks!
regards
Judy!

Hi Judy,
If you need more detailed help with your model, please contact support. Or maybe some other user will have some time to look into the details of it here.
Generally speaking however:
If you run a stationary study with 't' set to a fixed value t0, you get the solution to a situation where all loads (and other dependencies of the type f(t)) have had the fixed value given by f(t0) for a very long time.
