Thermal expansion in thin films

Hello,
I am trying to study the associated stresses due to thermal expansion in a layered film structure. I have set a temperature boundary of 1000degC as a bottom heating condition and used rigid motion suppression to take into account a min number of constraints as i am analyzing the free expansion of the film.
After computation, my model only shows me a profile for temperature but does not evaluate the stresses, i don't know what information i missed. Could somebody please take a look at this?
thankyou Vishakha

Try adding a Thermal Expansion node under Linear Elastic Material.
