+    "\n",
+    "The dislocation modelling toolkit provided in `matscipy.dislocation` includes functions to assist in characterising the mobility of dislocations in various systems. The two supported mechanisms are glide and kink, which both allow the dislocation to move in the glide direction.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "## Dislocation Glide\n",
+    "Dislocation Glide is where the entire dislocation line migrates across a glide barrier to advance the dislocation. These kinds of structures are easy to generate both in cylindrical and in quadrupolar structures.\n",
