Turning a time-based X-axis into equal percentages

Much of the data I work with are forces over time. Unfortunately, time is never the same between two trials (see attached photos). I would like to take this time data and divide it into 10 equal blocks from start to finish (i.e., 0-10%, 10-20%, 20-30%,.......90-100%). This way I can compare what happens between trials. Any suggestions?
As a secondary question, I am interested in getting specific values out of these percentage blocks (i.e., max between 20-30%). Thoughts?
Thank you for all of your help.

If t is time, I assume now you're doing something like plot(t,x). You could replace that with plot(t/t(end)*100,x). Now the x-axis is in % of total time. To have bins (i.e., one value representative of an interval), you could average all the data in the specific interval. Is that what you want?
