Abstract
Reorientation of the segregation pattern of a binary granular mixture on a two-dimensional hor- izontally oscillating tray is numerically realized. The mixture consists of large-and-heavy particles and small-and-light particles, the segregation pattern of which shows a transition between a striped pattern perpendicular to the oscillation and that parallel to the oscillating direction according to the change of area-fractions of two types of particles. The transition mechanism is discussed on the basis of a simplified 1-dimensional dynamics.
