Anisotropy is the property of being directionally dependent, so that a material or phenomenon has different characteristics along different axes. In science and engineering, it describes how attributes like conductivity, permeability, or stiffness vary with direction. The term is used across physics, materials science, and geology to explain anisotropic behavior that contrasts with isotropy, where properties are uniform in all directions.
