How to edit the Post-Simulation Plots?

Hello, is there any way to isolate data from the post-simulation plots? For my current applications, I only need to analyze Max Von Misses and ultimate stress. Is there any way for me to produce a plot only showing these two curves?

    The .resu files are the results from the simulation that can be downloaded and used for plotting.

    The text in the .resu files might look cryptic because it is in French, the under the hood FEM solver 'Code Aster' being developed by a French organization. Please find below the important sections in the text files that need to be parsed for plotting.

    In the DXDYDZ_kiri.resu, for each time step, this section is printed, where 71 INST means 71st step, DX       EST  1.10416116464761E+01 EN    1 NOEUD(S) : N1614 means the x displacement of a node in the moving end is 11.04 mm.

    Similarly, VmisTresca_kiri.resu and SigXXYYZZ_kiri.resu, have the stress values at each time step, for example, Von-Mises and Tresca stresses at 71st time step are:

    These values can be parsed and plotted as necessary.
