At least VTK supports also vector-valued solutions of arbitrary size. I tried 3-dimensional vectors for displacements and 6-dimensional vectors for postprocessed stresses. I currently stores these quantities in variables with suffixes "_x", "_y", "_z" and "_xx", "_xy", "_xz", "_yy", "_yx", "_zz" and have a little programm for postprocessing the resulting VTK files [1].
