In 2022, EDF found quantum should increase the ability to analyze the large number of variables relevant to studying dam deformation.
Challenges
Solution
Results
Numerical simulations of dam deformation can only consider a limited set of variables today
A quantum algorithm was deployed to analyze a vast dataset and consider age, environment, human error and other variables
Found quantum may lead to an exponential speedup at scale
