If your question is about how to configure JMeter virtual users for simulating increasing and decreasing load you can go for Open Model Thread Group:

For example this setup:

rate(0/sec) random_arrivals(1 min) rate(10/sec)random_arrivals(1 min) rate(10/sec)rate(10/sec) random_arrivals(1 min) rate(0/sec)

will result into the following workload model:

See Rethinking Load Configuration With JMeter’s Open Model Thread Group article for more information and examples of setting various workload models like spikes
