Deformed geometry from one analysis to another

Deformed geometry from one analysis to another

(OP)
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!

You can try using coman UPGEOM, for parametres see help

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.
