  We report a molecular dynamics study on the tensile mechanics of graphene as
gradually rotating the tensile direction from armchair to zigzag direction,
covering the complete range of chiral directions which has never been explored
so far. We observed monotonic increases of tensile strength and strain as the
chiral (rotational) angle increases. Key feature is their negligible changes up
to chiral angle of ~12{\deg} and the subsequent rapid increases and this
pattern holds for all temperatures examined here (100-700 K). Considering a
topologically consistent (zigzag-lines) breaking of graphene, we presented a
unified fracture model that successfully reproduced the simulation results as
well as explaining their physical origin. Notably, we found that the elastic
stress of graphene is quasi-isotropic for all chiral directions in contrast to
its anisotropic fracture behavior. Through the indentation simulations of
graphene, we demonstrated that our rationale established in uniaxial (1D)
tensile systems is applicable to 2D tensile systems as well.
