Segregation in dense granular flows is a large problem in many areas of industry and the natural environment. In the last few years an advection-diffusion style framework has been shown to capture segregation in many geometries. Here, we review the different ways such a framework has been obtained by different authors, compare the forms and make recommendations for the best form to use. Finally, we briefly outline some of the remaining open-questions.
