# NaCl example with random direction displacements.
The supercells with random displacements were created by
```bash
% phonopy --rd 10 --dim 2 2 2 --pa auto --amplitude 0.03 -c POSCAR-unitcell
```
After extracting `force-calcs.tar.xz`, `FORSE_SETS` is generated by
```bash
% phonopy -f force-calcs/disp-{001..010}/vasprun.xml
```
where displacements information is read from `phonopy_disp.yaml`.
With random displacements, force constants have to be computed using an external
force constants calculator. With installed symfc
(https://github.com/symfc/symfc) or ALM (https://github.com/ttadano/ALM), phonon
calculation can be performed with `--symfc` or `--alm` option, e.g.,
```bash
% phonopy-load --symfc --band auto -p
```
