# The maximum time weighted average concentration for a moving window

If you generate your time series using
[`sawtooth`](https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/pfm/reference/sawtooth.md), you
need to make sure that the length of the time series allows for finding
the maximum. It is therefore recommended to check this using
[`plot.one_box`](https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/pfm/reference/plot.one_box.md)
using the window size for the argument `max_twa`.

## Usage

``` r
max_twa(x, window = 21)
```

## Arguments

- x:

  An object of type
  [one_box](https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/pfm/reference/one_box.md)

- window:

  The size of the moving window

## Details

The method working directly on fitted
[mkinfit](https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/mkin/reference/mkinfit.html) objects
uses the equations given in the PEC soil section of the FOCUS guidance
and is restricted SFO, FOMC and DFOP models and to the parent compound

## Examples

``` r
pred <- sawtooth(one_box(10),
  applications = data.frame(time = c(0, 7), amount = c(1, 1)))
max_twa(pred)
#> $max
#>    parent 
#> 0.9537545 
#> 
#> $window_start
#> parent 
#>      0 
#> 
#> $window_end
#> parent 
#>     21 
#> 
pred_FOMC <- mkinfit("FOMC", FOCUS_2006_C, quiet = TRUE)
max_twa(pred_FOMC)
#>       21 
#> 18.22124
