Abstract
We discuss some dynamic properties of the segregation in vertically vibrated binary granular mixtures with the same size. We present a method that can accurately calculate the order parameter in the simulation. By use of the time evolution of the order parameter, we have found that the convergence of the segregated state depends at least on the vibration amplitude, the total mass of the particles, and also the density difference between the lighter and heavier particles. The convergence is quicker for larger vibration amplitude, lighter total mass of the particles and more density difference between the lighter and heavier particles. We have also found that the fluctuation is larger even after the steady state is reached for lighter total mass of the particles and less density difference between the lighter and heavier particles.
