Fraction of bankrupted countries for the 2016 WTN. Fraction η of countries went to bankruptcy up to the τth stage of the crisis contagion as a function of the bankruptcy threshold κ. For the first column, once a country goes to bankruptcy, it is prevented to import products with the exception of petroleum and gas (model A). For the second column, once a country goes to bankruptcy, it is prevented to import any product (model B). The first (second) row corresponds to a damping factor α=0.5 (α=0.85). The evolution of the fraction of bankrupted countries is monitored by the PCTB (4) (first and second rows) and by the ImportRank-ExportRank balance (5) (third row). The insets show the corresponding fraction η of bankrupted countries in the (τ,κ) plane. Dark red corresponds to the case where all the countries went to bankruptcy (η=1), and dark blue to the case where all the countries are safe (η=0)
