This is the only mention I've been able to find about how terpenoids change as the plant matures. It's not much and I'm interested to know more.
Is there a general pattern in which terpenoids mature? Does anyone know? Is there research about this?

Great question. I've also wondered what factors(besides genetics) affect terpenoids prominence. In other words what can be altered to increase the smell of your strain. Like how phosphorous helps flower swelling and potassium helps roots.
I would assume light spectrum has some effect on terpenoid production. Highland/mountainous strains have different terpenoid profiles than sea level/lowland varieties. Light spectrum changes with altitude and atmospheric density.
Growing plants in non native regions tends to result in plants that differ in potency and flavor than plants grown in their native regions, so it would be safe to assume environment also has affect on terpenoid production as well.
