  1. This paper proposes a new and improved implementation of a quantum integer multiplier. Performing arithmetic computations is sometimes a necessary step in the implementation of quantum algorithms. In this work, Quantum Fourier Transform is used in order to perform scalable arithmetic in a generic bit-width quantum system. In the phase domain, addition can be implemented through accumulated controlled rotations on the qubits’ state. Leveraging this, and inspired by the classical implementation of an array multiplier, a new integer multiplier is fully designed and tested in a quantum environment. The depth of a quantum circuit is the number of computational steps necessary to completion, and it is a key parameter that reflects on the performance of the design. The new design reduces the quantum depth of the design from the exponential order of the previously proposed designs to polynomial order.

  2. Testing took place from January to June 2019 and included natural and built environment tests with an emphasis on obtaining loading data for a 10x10 array of structures in the inundation zone. Bare earth tests were conducted first to get baseline velocity and wave height data. Then, the array of structures was added to the inundation zone. In addition to the same velocity and wave height sensors used in the bare earth experiments, some of the structures recorded pressures, moments, and loads. Debris in the form of wood blocks was added to both the bare earth and array tests to see how it changed the results. Sea walls are often used as a form of protection from waves and storm surge, so a wall of varying lengths was added to the array tests. These 5 main basin setups correspond to the 5 events below. Many different conditions were tested for each of these experiments. The "ALL_Experimental_Trials" table in the Sensor Information Section describes the conditions of every trial of the experiment and must be used to understand the data in every event folder. Please see the report for details as well.
