Scholar-generated biography
Charlotte F. Petersen is a Lecturer in the School of Chemistry at the University of Melbourne, specializing in statistical mechanics, computer simulations, and glass physics. Her research explores emergent phenomena in artificial spin ice systems, including magnetic monopole dynamics, geometrical frustration, and competing interactions. She investigates the thermodynamics and mechanics of disordered materials, such as auxetic metamaterials and quasi-confined hard-sphere fluids, with a focus on their dynamic and static properties near the glass transition. Petersen also applies computational methods to study nonequilibrium steady states and fluctuation theorems, contributing to the understanding of anomalous transport and dissipation in complex systems.
