Dear Gromacs users,

I want to perform umbrella sampling in order to calculate the PMF for pulling a molecule from a surface. For evaluation, I use gmx wham with bootstrapping, and Gromacs version is 2018.4. I've noticed that my results strongly depend on the number of bins, with peak heights differ in the magnitude of several kJ/mol. The histograms display reasonable overlap. I've tried to alter the number of bins to search for convergence (starting from default 200, I used up to 10000 bins), though convergence was not achieved. Is this an expected behaviour and is the default 200 a suitable number of bins?

Thanks,
Andreas
