The three-dimensional propagation characteristics of flare-associated interplanetary shock waves are statistically investigated based on comprehensive studies of solar flare-associated geophysical effects, multispacecraft observations of the solar wind, and interplanetary scintillation observations. The flare-shock wave is found to propagate asymmetrically, with the greatest propagation velocity in the longitudinal direction tending towards the interplanetary spiral magnetic field, and in the latitudinal direction approaching the heliospheric current sheet. The dynamic parameters and the shock wave energy are shown to be higher in the southeast than in the northwest of the flare shock wave, and the magnetic field is weaker in the southeast than in the northwest.
