Event classification for the simulations performed by Froment et al. (2018), shown with a similar layout as Fig. 4d. Loop A is a semicircular with a length of 367 Mm, heated with ten values of λ₁ and λ₂, both ranging from 2 to 11% of the loop length. Loop B is a highly asymmetric loop with a length of 367 Mm, heated with 12 values of λ₁ and λ₂, ranging from 7 to 18% and from 2 to 13% of the loop length, respectively. Loop C is a moderately asymmetric loop with a length of 139 Mm, heated with 12 values of λ₁ and λ₂, both ranging from 4 to 15% of the loop length. The diagonal lines in each square correspond to λ₁ = λ₂.
