For Limits, enter a list of values directly, or use the Range button (
 ). All grains whose expressions evaluate to a number between the same limits, are put into the same bin. |

For Number of bins, enter the Number of bins. The default is 10. Then select one of the following from the Distribution list: Equal number of particles or Equal bin width. The limits for each bin are computed so that they lie between the largest and smallest values of the expression over all grains.

For Tolerance enter the Tolerance. Grains are typically placed in the same bin if the difference between their expression values is less than the tolerance. This is a convenient option when the value of the expression should take on any of a large number of discrete values, since you can simply specify a small tolerance and then a single bin is created for each discrete value.

Grain Bin datasets require the Granular Flow Module.
