Fig. 4.

Initial conditions of the normalized shear stress τi /(σ –p0) for Model-1 and Model-2. Model-2 reflects only the northern and western parts of the stress concentration of Model-1, which simulates the conditions just after two M 7-class earthquakes off Miyagi (on June 12, 1978 and January 19, 1981).
