If you refer to the sharp change in slope around K, you need to make a jump 
from K to U. These two points are equivalent. Attached please see one that I 
did a while back.

You mean: reproduce another calculation, or experiments? How is the 
"al.ph.bands.eps" graph obtained?

Anyway: I don't see anything wrong in the data, apart from self-consistency  
thresholds that are a little bit too large (setting thr_conv=1.0e-10 in the scf 
input and - more importantly - tr2_ph=1.0e-14 or smaller in the phonon input,  
improves the reliability of the calculation at the price of one second CPu or 
so).

Dear QE users,
I am trying to reproduce the phonon dispersion of FCC aluminum, and overall 
looks correct except around the K point in the FBZ. I tried everything to solve 
the issue but I am not able to get rid of it.
I attach here the band plot, in addition I upload all the input SCF and PH 
calculations, I appreciate any suggestion.

Thanks in advance,
