TLDR
In this paper, the creep performance of (001)-orientated superalloy single crystals at temperatures beyond 1000 C was analyzed and it was demonstrated that methods of interpretation which, assume a proportionality between the creep strain rate and creep strain, are unable to account for creep hardening which occurs as a consequence of rafting.

High temperature fatigue of nickel-base superalloys - A review with special emphasis on deformation modes and oxidation

TL;DR: In this article, a review of Ni-base superalloys in terms of fundamental deformation mechanisms, environmental effects, and interactions between environment and deformation mode is presented, where the basic principles that are developed are used to show how both intrinsic and extrinsic variables can be manipulated to control fatigue behaviour and as a guide for formulation of engineering life prediction models.

Microstructural and compositional design of Ni-based single crystalline superalloys ― A review

TL;DR: In this paper, a review on the effects of some common alloying elements on the microstructural and mechanical property stability control of Ni-based superalloys is presented, including base elements, mechanical strengthening elements, long term stability elements and the oxidation resistance elements.

The importance of sign and magnitude of γ/γ′ lattice misfit in superalloys—with special reference to the new γ′-hardened cobalt-base superalloys

TL;DR: In this paper, the role played by the lattice misfit (which is negative for all currently used Ni-base superalloys) is elucidated with respect to its sign, magnitude and temperature dependence.

Mechanisms of high-temperature creep of nickel-based superalloys under low applied stresses

TL;DR: In this paper, single-crystal specimens of the superalloys CMSX-4 and MSX-10 were tested for creep at 1100°C under tensile stresses between 105 and 135 MPa, where they showed pronounced steady creep.

Damage accumulation during creep deformation of a single crystal superalloy at 1150 °C

TL;DR: In this article, microstructural degradation in the CMSX-4 single crystal superalloy during creep deformation at 1150°C and 100MPa is studied. And it is shown that the high strain rates and shear stresses associated with the rupture process are sufficient to cause realignment of the rafted γ′ structure with respect to the γ matrix.

On the kinetics of rafting in CMSX-4 superalloy single crystals

TL;DR: In this paper, the kinetics of γ′ rafting in single crystals at 950°C have been studied using scanning and transmission electron microscopies, and it is concluded that the threshold strain is a quantity suitable for distinguishing between rafting occurring in the “elastic� and “plastic” regimes.

Creep of CMSX-4 superalloy single crystals: effects of misorientation and temperature

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of misorientation away from the symmetry boundary on the creep performance of superalloy single crystals has been investigated, and it is suggested that the occurrence of small misorientations can be associated with both primary and tertiary deformation.

Tertiary creep in nickel-base superalloys: analysis of experimental data and theoretical synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, a more substantial range of data for alloys of this type is presented and it is concluded that ductility in creep is the most significant parameter correlating differences in rates of strain-accumulation in the tertiary stage: thus, the lower the ductility the greater the rate of strain accumulation.
