Write multiple time steps of field with varying mesh into same file

Development

Hello,
I would like to store multiple time steps of a field with varying mesh coordinates over time (it is a solution of thermal expansion with a time varying temperature field).
Is there a way to do so?
From the documentation I see that it is possible to write several time steps, into the same file, but for a field with constant mesh among the time steps.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Roberto

I assume you want to use a MED file for storing your data. As far as I know it is not possible to change the node coordinates over time. However, it should be possible to store the displacements together with the temperature.

Thank you for your suggestion, it is indeed the strategy I tried at last, and it works. This is the best solution, which also optimizes the use of memory, since the mesh connectivity has to be written only once.
