The '''Multiphysics Methods Group (MMG)''' is a program at [[Idaho National Laboratory]] (under the [[U.S. Department of Energy]]) in 2004. It uses modeling software to simulate complex [[nuclear chemistry|physical and chemical reactions]] inside [[nuclear reactor]]s. The ultimate goal of the program is to use these simulation tools to enable more efficient use of [[nuclear fuel]], resulting in lower electricity costs and less [[radioactive waste|waste products]].<ref>
