Abstract
An evolution equation for a curved glide dislocation is formulated usi ng the concept of line tension and a parametric description of the dis location line. A numerical method is developed to solve the equation u nder quite general conditions. Starting with an initial configuration, a time evolution of the gliding dislocation is computed in two simple cases as an example.
