Computational modeling study demonstrates Hamiltonian simulation for elastic structural dynamics, highlighting quantum computing potential in engineering mechanics.
This study proposes a quantum computing algorithm for dynamic structural analysis, assuming the use of quantum computers. Specifically, we apply a quantum algorithm known as Hamiltonian Simulation (HS), which calculates the time evolution of the Schrödinger equation with time‐independent coefficients, to the equations of motion governing the simple harmonic motion problem of a two‐dimensional elastic structure. This is implemented by applying the Quantum Singular Value Transformation (QSVT) method to the finite‐element‐discretized equations. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated through several numerical experiments and compared with theoretical computational complexity and error estimates. Practical challenges are also discussed.
