Spectral Peak Period
Period of the maximum (peak) energy density in the spectrum.
NOTE 1 In practice, there is often more than one peak in a spectrum.
NOTE 2 There are two types of spectral peak period used within this part of ISO 19905: intrinsic and apparent. The distinction is discussed in A.7.3.3.5, which is, in turn, based on ISO 19901-1:2005, 8.3 and A.8.3.
NOTE 3 Adapted from ISO 19901-1:2005, definition 3.32.
