Space-Time plots

$

Hello,

do you know if there is a way to produce space-time plots in COMSOL 4.3?

I'll explain better my problem. I am simulating a rection-transport problem in 2D geometry with the time dependent solver. COMSOL can straightforwardly plot the concentration variable as a funcion of the space as a color map in a 2D surface plot, for each time step. I could also easily define a cut line in the solution, so that I can have a 1D plot of the concentration vs arc length of the cut line, always at a specific time step. Now what I want to have is a 2D space-time plot of the concentration, where the x axis is the arc length of the cut line, the y axis is the time, and the concentration is plotted as a color map. This kind of plot is widely used in the study of chemical instabilities like formation of patterns or travelling waves.

Should this not be possible directly "out of the box", is there any way I can save the "cut line" solution at all times in a file and then access it with Matlab or another program to create the space-time plot?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best

Domenico
