IonQ, Synopsys integrate quantum algorithm into Ansys LS-DYNA simulations to cut runtime up to 14.6%
IONQ•Quantum algorithm integrated into Ansys LS-DYNA simulations
IonQ partnered with Synopsys to integrate a quantum algorithm into Ansys LS-DYNA engineering simulation software.
The hybrid workflow cut total simulation runtimes by at least 5.9%, peaking at 14.6% across tested industrial design models.
The work used simulations on up to 150 qubits, with physical execution validated on IonQ’s 36-qubit Forte trapped-ion system.
The results target large linear-algebra bottlenecks in high-end simulations, pointing to lower compute costs for industrial users.
