We employed molecular dynamics simulations to study mechanical properties of NiAl nanowires by calculating the stress-strain response of the wires under various loading conditions. For this purpose, nanowires were subjected to uniaxial strain at 300 K using embedded atom model potential. The behaviour of the wires at low and high strain rates is different from one another. As the strain rate increased, fracture occurs at higher strains.
