Usually there's several simulation result files for one simulation ending by -fid=[0-9]. We only need to keep the last one

dir=c
[ -d $dir ] || mkdir $dir

list=$(
    for f in *.m; do
        r=$f;
        i=-;
        if [ "$(echo $f | grep fid)" ]; then
            r=${f/-fid=[0-9]/};
            i=$(echo $f | sed 's/.*-fid=\([0-9]\).*/\1/');
        fi;
        echo $r $i $f;
    done |\
    sort -k 1,2
)

files=$(
    echo $list |\
    cut -f1 -d' ' |\
    uniq
)

for f in $(echo $files); do
    r=$(echo $list | grep \^$f | tail -1 | cut -d' ' -f3)
    cp $r $dir/$f
done
