We present a dynamic model to study ordering of particles on arbitrary curved surfaces. Thereby the particles are represented as maxima in a density field and a surface partial differential equation for the density field is solved to the minimal energy configuration. We study annihilation of dislocations within the ordered system and premelting along grain-boundary scars. The obtained minimal energy configurations on a sphere are compared with existing results and scaling laws are computed for the number of excess dislocations as a function of system size.
