Theoretical results on the dynamics of dislocations in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection are reported both for Swift-Hohenberg models and the Boussinesq equations. For intermediate Prandtl numbers the motion of dislocations is found to be driven…
An approximate equation of motion is proposed for screw and edge dislocations, which accounts for retardation and for relativistic effects in the subsonic range. Good quantitative agreement is found, in accelerated or in decelerated…
