trimodal

Having three peaks

Trimodal describes something with three modes or peaks.

In statistics, a trimodal distribution has three distinct high points where values cluster, unlike the single peak of a normal bell curve.

The term applies wherever three separate modes exist: a trimodal transportation system integrates rail, road, and water; trimodal therapy combines three treatment approaches.
