Abstract
We discover inverse logarithmic density compaction in a three-dimensional frustrated lattice gas subject to gravity and vibrations. The general properties of compaction are in excellent agreement with some recent experimental results with granular media and Monte Carlo simulation in two-dimensional systems.
