Creep of single-crystal superalloys is governed by dislocation glide, climb, reactions and annihilation. Discrete three-dimensional (3D) dislocation dynamics (DDD) simulations are used to study the evolution of the dislocation substructure in a γ/γ′ microstructure of a single-crystal superalloy for different climb rates and loading conditions. A hybrid mobility law for glide and climb is used to map the interactions of dislocations with γ′ cubes. The focus is on the early stages of creep, where dislocation plasticity is confined to narrow γ channels. With enhancing climb mobility, the creep strain increases, even if the applied resolved shear stress is below the critical stress required for squeezing dislocations into the γ channels. The simulated creep microstructure consists of long dislocations and a network near the corners of the γ′ precipitate in the low-stress regime. In the high-stress regime, dislocations squeeze into the γ channels, where they deposit dislocation segments at the γ/γ′ interfaces. These observations are in good agreement with experimentally observed dislocation structures that form during high-temperature and low-stress creep.
