This command is used to construct a TimeSeries object in which the load factor is some pulse function of the time in the domain.


timeSeries Pulse $tag $tStart $tEnd $period <-shift $shift> <-factor $cFactor>



$tag unique tag among TimeSeries objects
$tStart starting time of non-zero load factor
$tEnd ending time of non-zero load factor
$period characteristic period of triangular wave
$shift phase shift in seconds (optional, default = 0.0)
$cFactor the load amplification factor (optional, default = 1.0)
