Problem statement

Geometry
Restrained bar with alpha=12e-6 1/K and tabulated E: 200000 MPa at 20 C, 150000 MPa at 120 C; heat to 70 C with linear interpolation.
Material
Constitutive or analytical definition: Linear property interpolation and sigma=-E(T) alpha DeltaT.
Boundary conditions
Required solver capability: temperature_dependent_material. Use the loading/path control stated in the setup and preserve the complete response history.
Measured quantity
E(70 C)=175000 MPa and constrained stress=-105 MPa.
