intensity.function

Generates intensity function, function with time as sole argument.

Simulation tools for planning Vitamin D studies. Individual vitamin D status
profiles are simulated, modelling population heterogeneity in trial arms.
Exposures to infectious agents are generated, with infection depending on vitamin D status.
