The results of numerical molecular dynamics simulation of the synthesis and fracture of a Ti-Al intermetallic nanocrystal under uniaxial tension are reported. It is shown that, at temperatures higher than 1000 K, fracture is preceded by the phase transition of a nanocrystal from the crystalline to amorphous state.
