Rupture Directivity

Rupture Directivity is a seismic source phenomenon in earthquake rupture dynamics characterized by the asymmetric radiation of seismic energy due to the propagation direction of a fault rupture, resulting in amplified ground motions in the direction of rupture propagation compared to those in the opposite direction.
