Results of fitting the asymmetrical rupture model. a Frequency distribution of variance reduction (VR). b Comparison between VR and \(\Delta AIC\). Red and blue circles show \(\Delta AICs\) greater and less than 2, respectively. c Frequency distribution of \(r'\). d Frequency distribution of stress drop. Blue and red lines indicate the results of the asymmetrical and symmetrical rupture models, respectively. e Comparison between the stress drops based on the asymmetrical and symmetrical rupture models. f Fault area compared with the seismic moment. Blue and red symbols indicate the results of the asymmetrical and symmetrical rupture model, respectively
