  2. Anisotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisotropy

    Anisotropy (/ ˌænaɪˈsɒtrəpi, ˌænɪ -/) is the structural property of non-uniformity in different directions, as opposed to isotropy. An anisotropic object or pattern has properties that differ according to direction of measurement.
