Effective viscosity and plastic strain-rate during the earthquake cycle. The postseismic relaxation following the full rupture event 43 takes longer time than that following the partial rupture event 47. a Effective viscosity of the asthenosphere after the full rupture. b Plastic strain rate corresponding to four stages in a. c Effective viscosity of the asthenosphere after the partial rupture. d Plastic strain rate corresponding to four stages in c
