A computational technique is developed to predict the statistics of internal elastic fields of three-dimensional dislocation systems in deforming crystals. The internal elastic fields are computed based on 3D dislocation realizations generated by the method of dislocation dynamics simulation. Preliminary results are presented for the statistical characteristics of the elastic strain, lattice rotation and dislocation density tensor fields. The importance of the current analysis is discussed in the context of direct comparison of simulations with spatially resolved 3D X-ray microscopy measurements of lattice rotation and the dislocation density tensor.
