This should get you started:
>> str = '5*0.02 0.02 0.04 0.08 0.15 0.3 0.5 1 2 3 30*5 30*10 30*20 30*40 30*60';
>> fun = @(n,c)repmat(sprintf(' %s',c),1,str2double(n));
>> str = regexprep(str,'\s*(\d+)\*(\S+)','${fun($1,$2)}')
str =
0.02 0.02 0.02 0.02 0.02 0.02 0.04 0.08 0.15 0.3 0.5 1 2 3 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60
If you use join then you can get rid of the leading \s*.
