Pierre Deligne in his celebrated paper entitling "[Local behavior of Hodge structures at infinity][1]" introduced  [Maximal degenerations][2] of Calabi-Yau manifolds. 

Let $\pi:X\to \mathbb C^*$ be a family of degeneration of of Calabi-Yau fibers. We have from [D. Barlet][3] asymptotic formula

$$\int_{X_s}\Omega_s\wedge\bar\Omega_s=C(\log |s|)^m|s|^{2k}(1+O(1))$$

for some $C \in \mathbb C^∗$, $k ∈ \mathbb Z, 0 \leq m \leq n = dim(X)$ and we can formulate $m$ via log-canonical threshold, see Proposition 2.1 of [this paper][4] of Mourougane


In another view we want the degeneracy index $m=δ(X,X_0)$ defined by [Halle–Nicaise][5] be exactly $n=dim X$

We say that $X$ has [maximal degeneration][6] at $s = 0$,  if in the
formula above we have $m = n$.

Later this definition become very important in Miror symmetry for example in Siebert-Gross program or Kontsevich-Soibelman program.
