Investigating the effectiveness of rupture directivity during the August 24, 2016 Mw 6.0 central Italy earthquake

In this study we investigate directivity effects associated to the Mw6.0 Amatrice earthquake taking into account the source rupture heterogeneities. We use the directivity predictor proposed by Spudich et al. (2004) which is derived from the isochrones theory. The directivity is computed using a sou...
