Why I get the wrong peak from bode plot?

%%Parameters
m1 = 2500;   % (kg)
m2 = 320;    % (kg)
k1 = 80000;  % (N/m)
k2 = 500000; % (N/m)
b1 = 350;    % (N*s/m)
b2 = 15020;  % (N*s/m)
%%Transfer Function
num1 = [(0) (-m1*b2) (-m1*k2) (0) (0)]; 
den1 = [(m1*m2) (m1*b1+m1*b2+m2*b1) (m1*k1+m1*k2+m2*k1+b1*b2) (b1*k2+k1*b2) (k1*k2)];
G1 = tf(num1,den1);
%%Resonant Frequency of Dynamic Model
bode(G1)
grid on;
[gpeak,fpeak] = getPeakGain(G1)

My resault is wrong according to the zoomed diagram.

gpeak =

   20.9719

fpeak =

    5.2516

According to the picture below I should get:

gpeak = 25 ~ 27

The function getPeakGain returns the peak gain on an absolute scale, whereas the Bode plot displays the gain on a decibel scale.

Please try:

gpeak_dB = 20*log10(gpeak);

and check the value. It should be approx 26.4, which is consistent with the Bode plot.

Thank you, it works.

I have 2 Questions, I would appreciate it if you could answer me.

1) Can I change the units from Magnitude (dB) to Amplitude (m)?

2) How can I get the 2 peaks from the picture below? Because these commands gives me the only the highest.

[gpeak,fpeak] = getPeakGain(G1)
gpeak_dB = 20*log10(gpeak);
