Simply change particle radius at runtime. See:

Changing both color and radius is how this was made using ObiRope:

I've managed to create the bulges, but I can't change the particle color like in your Gif

I'm setting the color from here
Code:
_rope.solver.colors[solverIndex] = color;

but it dose not have any effect on rope color.

What material do you use, I'm using RedRope + ObiRopeExtrudedRenderer.

You must use a shader that uses vertex colors when rendering, of course. Unity's Standard shader does not. You can find lots of per-vertex colored shaders online, and there's also one included at Obi/Resources/ObiMaterials/StandardVertexColors.shader which mimics the Standard shader.
