The superconducting circuits involving Josephson junction offer macroscopic quantum two-level system (qubit) which are coupled to cavity resonators and are operated via microwave signals. In this work, we study the dynamics of superconducting qubits coupled to a cavity with including dissipation in a subKelvin temperature domain. In the first step, a classical finite element method is used to simulate the cavities and basic circuit elements to model Josephson junctions. Then, the quantization of the circuit is done to obtain the full Hamiltonian of the system using energy participation ratios of the junctions. Once the parameters of Hamiltonian are obtained, the dynamics is studied via the Lindblad equation for an open quantum system using a realistic set of dissipative parameters and include temperature effects. Finally, we get frequency spectra and/or dynamics of the system with time which have quantum imprints. Such devices work at tens of milliKelvins and we search for a set of parameters which could enable to observe quantum behaviour at temperatures as high as 1 K.
