Signal Generation
Matlab Scripts
Generation of time history signals:

1=sine
2=cosine
3=damped sine
4=sine sweep
5=white noise
6=terminal sawtooth pulse
7=half-sine pulse
8=versed sine pulse
9=wavelet

Generate a white noise time history where the user specifies the standard deviation and kurtosis.  The skewness is approximately zero.

white_kurtosis.m

progressbar.m

Generate a white noise time history where the user specifies the standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis.
