Abstract: An analysis of the manner of establishing a relativistic micro-universe with respect to the motion of soliton-like defects in elastic media is performed. It is demonstrated that the change of variables in the elastic-dynamic equations holding the motion of a screw dislocation must be complemented by the contraction law for the displacement vector and that a theory based on Lorentz’s transformations is not the only possible framework for representing the motion of soliton-like defects.
