problem with thermal stress module

I am solving something similar to an additive manufacturing process; you begin with a layer and at the end you finish with ten (for example).
I have tried to solve the heat transfer problem with all the layers created on my geometry but I have imposed a function between them that deletes the conduction between them when they are not positioned.
The results are quite good, now I want to solve the thermal residual stresses during the heating and I find many problems because I define the geometry as an assembly but that is true until the layers return into the same after being fastened due to the heating. I dont want to create a contact pair because it is really a joint. is it possible to create an assembly that changes into a glued part during the solving process??
