Finding the turning point on a curve

15 views (last 30 days)
Hello;
I have a question about finding the turning points on a graph. See the curve that is attached. Its basically a second derivate of the data, and I can see the maximum values (points of interests) at x=10, x=37. How can I automatically find those two indices for these two maximum points.
The input data is also attached.
