The critical pressure for failure is represented by the horizontal dark red line. The gray shadowed regions correspond to times with increasing εp for each fault according to Fig. 2. Note that the scale of stress variation is different in each plot. The behavior of the rest of the faults is shown in Supplementary Fig. S5.
