• VT 3 G is engaged in development of hybrid 3-D, multiscale,parallel particle transport algorithms and codes,and their application to nuclear energy, nuclear securityand non-proliferation and radiation therapy anddiagnosis.• In the past 25 years, VT 3 G has developed numerousparticle transport methodologies and formulations.These efforts have led to the development of majorcomputer codes including:• Deterministic parallel PENTRAN and TITAN code systems• Monte Carlo A 3 MCNP and ADIES code systems withautomated variance reduction for neutral and chargedparticles, respectively.• CPXSD code system for generation of effective multigroupcross sections.
Ongoing projects• Nuclear PowerDeveloping advanced multigroup algorithms forSimulation of Advanced Reactors (Funded by DOE–Joint with Georgia Tech) (2010-2013)Neutronics modeling of mPower Nuclear Reactor(B&W) (started in 2012)Integral Inherently Safe Light Water Reactor(I 2 S-LWR) , led by Georgia Tech with participationof 7 other organizations (recently funded) (fundedby DOE IRP, $6 M, 2013-2016)
