dc.descriptionWe discuss the microscopic origin of dynamical instabilities and segregation patterns discovered in granular mixtures under oscillating horizontal shear, by investigating, via molecular dynamics simulations, the effective interaction between like-particles. This turns out to be attractive at short distances and strongly anisotropic, with a longer range repulsive shoulder along the direction of oscillation. This features explain the system rich phenomenology, including segregation and stripe pattern formation. Finally, we show that a modified Cahn-Hilliard equation, taking into account the characteristics of the effective interaction, is capable of describing the dynamics of the mixture.
