If there's no info, we need to base solutions on assumptions. This one assumes that there's no trailing zeroes in a value, i.e. a less than three decimal number ends witha meaningful digit, and that there's positive values to follow the zeroes' suite. Try
Code:
sed -r 's/(-*[0-9]\.)/\n\1/g; :L; s/([^\n])0\n/\1\n0\n/;tL; s/\n//' /tmp/U_z2.txt
