Evolution of equatorial rotational velocity vrot (thick dot-dashed), critical velocity vcrit (dashed), and the critical velocity fraction vrot/vcrit (solid red) for 5 M (panels a, b), 15 M (panels c, d), and 25 M (panels e, f) models at MW metallicity (panels a, c, e) and SMC metallicity (panels b, d, f). The initial critical velocity fraction values are all approximately 0.6. The X-axis indicates the fractional main sequence lifetime, t/tMS.
