Source Rupture Complexity

Source Rupture Complexity is a seismological construct that characterizes the degree of spatial and temporal heterogeneity in the fault rupture process during an earthquake, distinguishing it from simpler, more uniform rupture models by quantifying deviations in slip distribution, propagation dynamics, and energy release patterns.
