We investigated how twin modes in hexagonal close packed materials can affect large inelastic strain behavior and fracture. We considered the two twin mode systems of (11 (2) over bar1)[(11) over bar 26] and (0001) [(11) over bar 20] in zircaloy-2, with each mode having 24 unique twin systems. We then incorporated these twin and parent slip systems with a dislocation-density crystalline plasticity, a non-linear finite-element, and fracture framework that accounts for crack nucleation and propagation. We investigated how these twin modes affect the interrelated effects of crack nucleation and propagation, dislocation density and inelastic slip evolution, stress accumulation, and lattice rotation. The predictions indicate that twin modes significantly affect local deformation and fracture behavior, and, therefore, are essential for the accurate representation of behavior at different physical scales in heterogeneous crystalline hexagonal close packed systems.
