Snapshots of the slip distribution at 10-s intervals. The star in the top panel represents the epicenter. The time after earthquake initiation is shown on each panel. Segments detected by the rupture evolution are shown by the red rectangles. For reference, a rupture front velocity is given with the black arrow in top panel. The white arrows show the rupture propagation direction during each time interval.
