I believe you're looking for the TemporalStatistics filter. Specifically
what you want maybe something along the lines of:
temporal_statistics = TemporalStatistics(Input=vtk_data)
temporal_statistics.ComputeAverage = 1
temporal_statistics.ComputeMinimum = 0
temporal_statistics.ComputeMaximum = 0
temporal_statistics.ComputeStandardDeviation = 0
This should make the computation slightly faster as you don't need to
compute and store the stddev, min, and max.

Hi Everyone,
I'm very new to Paraview and python scripting. I have a series of time
dependent .vtu files and would like to
1. Read the vtu files for each time step
2. calculate the magnitude of shear stress
3. calculate time-averaged shear stress for all the elements in my geometry
4. output/write a vtu file and load it back to paraview.
I think I have been able to successfully implement steps 1 and 2 (please see
bellow) but am completely clueless on how to do 3 and 4. Could anyone help me
with this? I also should mention that I have tried the Temporal Statistics
Filter and it seems to be working fine, but would like to have a way to do it
with pythons scripting as well.
Thanks,
Parastou
