Quantum-Ready and Quantum-Inspired Computing for Fluid Dynamics

Within the past decade, significant progress has been made in using quantum computing  (QC)  for solving classical problems.  In this talk, an overview is made of the ways by which QC has shown promise for fluid dynamics research.  This is via both quantum-ready and quantum-inspired algorithms.  The former deals with problems that either have the potentials to benefit from quantum speed-up on universal gate-based digital computers, or those that can be solved on quantum simulators.  The latter deals with new classical algorithms that have emerged from quantum physics.
