<p>Initiation, propagation, and termination of an earthquake rupture are highly sensitive to initial stress conditions. However, due to the difficulty of determining stresses, in-situ many studies have considered only uniform regional stresses without trying to estimate and include a realistic pre-stress constrained by a regional stress state. A geodynamic model can solve this issue of constraining initial stresses for a large region with great depth. A regional geodynamic model can include a fault zone, which can spontaneously form from a pre-defined one in the model. In this work, we show a rupture simulation on 2D large offset normal fault. </p
