Spontaneous Negative Entropy Increments in Granular Flows

The entropy inequality, commonly taken as an axiom of continuum mechanics, is found to be spontaneously violated in macroscopic granular media undergoing collisional dynamics. The result falls within the fluctuation theorem of nonequilibrium thermodynamics, which is known to replace the Second Law f...
