What it can do

  • Lists meshes, groups, fields and time steps in .med and .rmed files and flags truncated files.
  • Computes min, max, mean and percentiles over a group using Gauss-point values, and extracts time histories, line profiles and raw values as CSV.
  • Renders PNG images with cut planes and thresholds, builds journal-style figures, and opens the interactive browser viewer for you.
  • Converts results to .pvd and .vtu for ParaView builds without a MED reader.

Limitations

  • Never runs code_aster and never modifies .med files.
  • Tested on Linux only; Windows and macOS are untried.
  • No isolines or vector glyphs yet; Gauss-point fields are coloured one value per element.
