We present a model for the motion of arbitrarily curved interfaces that respects the underlying crystallography of two phases/domains meeting at an interface and is consistent with microscopic mechanisms of interface motion, i.e., migration of disconnection (line defects in the interface with step and dislocation character) [1]. The equation of motion for interface migration under the influence of a wide range of driving forces is discussed with the aid of numerical simulations [1,2]. A diffuse interface framework is also used to handle complex morphology and deliver proof of concept for microstructure evolution [2]. Recent results achieved with this model, concerning grain boundary morphologies, the competition among thermodynamic and kinetic effects, and grain rotation will be illustrated. [1] J. Han et al.
