Example:
if we want to apply 1000 load cycles, the time period of each cycle is 0.25s.
Amplitude, as the term suggests, is just a scaling factor to the amount of load you
wish to apply. So, instead of ramping up the load to the final value, if I wanted
to have a triangular waveform, I could enter a table in the amplitude definition as
follows:
Time | Amplitude
==================
0.0 | 0.0
_______________
0.5 | 0.5
_______________
1.0 | 0.0
So, if my ultimate load value is, say, 100 N, then at time=0.0, load=0.0*100=0.0.
At time=0.5, load=0.5*100=50, ..
You can even assign a user defined loading protocol, if that's needed.

You can apply a waveform as ramps in such way to form a triangular waveform.
Other way is to apply the loading history by introducing constant increments of
time, for each value of load, in a given period of time, until you reach the
maximum load. Then you do it again, changing the sense of loading. You can enter
this loading history by means of a table: time X load
