  We study the filling process of a two-dimensional silo with inelastic
particles by simulation of a granular media lattice gas (GMLG) model. We
calculate the surface shape and flow profiles for a monodisperse system and we
introduce a novel generalization of the GMLG model for a binary mixture of
particles of different friction properties where, for the first time, we
measure the segregation process on the surface. The results are in good
agreement with a recent theory, and we explain the observed small deviations by
the nonuniform velocity profile.
