Total energies and optimized structural parameters are computed by the Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package (VASP) using the local density approximation (LDA). When simulating extreme loading conditions that may be relevant for highly-strained regions we predict a semi-metal to metal phase transition that is connected with the onset of mechanical instability for higher values of triaxial loads as well as many other multi-axial loading conditions. The instability is assessed by both rigorous Born-Huang's criteria connected with elastic stiffness coefficients as well as by phonon spectra computed for all three straining modes. The values of theoretical tensile strength of MoSi2 for uniaxial, biaxial and triaxial loading corresponding to the first phonon instability amount to 30, 41 and 35 GPa, respectively. We show that the semi-metal to metal transition is connected with the softening of acoustic phonons at the G point rather than with the instability of other phonon modes. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V.
