Hi Folks, I think the answer to my question is 'no', but wanted to double check before I embark on any work to address this.
Background: MayaVi allows to display time series very nicely. All one has to do is to create vtk files with file names data1.vtk, data2.vtk, data3.vtk, ... and MayaVi will pick this up automatically and display the data in these files one after the other. In each vtk file I need to store the mesh and for the systems I am looking at the mesh (a unstructured FE mesh) does not change over time. Therefore, it appears I am wasting disk space (and probably time to read the mesh from the file) storing this redundant information for every time step. Here is the question: Is it possible to, say, define the mesh only in the first file (somehow) and to store the data in subsequent files? If not, is there any body else out there who has a similar problem? If so, have you come up with any other solutions?
