3.4.4.3 Peak/Valley Averaging Coefficient The Averaging coefficient for peaks and valleys lets you find the average load, stress, distance or strain for all peaks and valleys or for peaks and valleys within a range. For example, you may get the average load of all peaks within a peel test graph, or specify the average of selected peaks within the data stream of your test.

The Sensitivity handle is set at 25%. The valleys are found based on incidents where the load increases and decreases by 25%. The entire test is scoped.
The average of all data points within the scoped and sensitivity range are used to calculate Lavg2. The green line defines the data stream used to calculate the average.
The Sensitivity handle is set at 10%. The peaks are found based on incidents where the load increases and decreases by 10%. The scope range used is between 2.6 and 4.8 seconds.
This peak is not included since it falls outside the scope range of 2.6 and 4.8 seconds.
This valid peaks are displayed in blue. The green line shows the range of the data stream that is used to calculate the Lavg coefficient.
