Hi, I'm Yann Lijour, a Civil Engineering student at École des Ponts ParisTech in France and architect graduated from national architecture school of Paris Malaquais.
I use my skills in design, engineering and programming to develop projects with an innovative and personal approach. I do not use a systemic approach but adapt my methodology to the project, the request and the available resources. I can work on scales ranging from prototypes with 3D printing to large-scale data representation using GIS software.
I also produce building permits for renovations or extensions through a self-employed business, and I am available for any enquiries on this subject.
During my years of study, I have developed many skills, which are listed at the bottom of each section.
Topofacile is an web app platform that facilitates access to free, accurate topographic data for all of France and world (but more precise in France), in both 2D and 3D. Designed to meet the needs of architects, engineers, and design offices, it offers detailed files (buildings, roads, plots, contour lines) in DXF, JSON, SVG, OBJ, STL and 3DM format, sourced directly from IGN and OSM data. Its goal is to simplify the search for and use of reliable geographic data, while offering an intuitive and accessible interface.
An online finite element modeling software project, I wanted a modernized and more complete version of rdm6 or pyBar. The project is far from finished, an alpha/prototype version is online, but be warned, there are a lot of bugs at the moment.
A dynamic model of Taipei 101 Tower created for my physics degree project. I will try to convert the project so that animations can be created on the website.
My final year project in architecture. I will post the documents online later (click on the title to see the Archires description). Abstract : Located at Ergué-Gabéric in Brittany, the Odet paper mills are famous for making OCB paper. A 1,500-metre canal created to carry water to the paper mill was the starting point for a reflexion on water. Faced with the need to re-industrialise the country, Page d'Après plans to reintroduce paper manufacturing on the site. By using the canal to produce electricity, it will be able to manufacture paper that is low-carbon and local, by recycling paper from the sorting centre of the municipality. Depending on its availability, water defines the uses and users of the site. Water is stored when there is a surplus, and production stops when there is not enough. At the same time, a museum programme will highlight the history of the site, how paper is made, and our relationship with water and energy. The porous relationship between the museum and the factory will create visual links throughout the visit, and the two programmes will be brought together in a café-restaurant, where visitors and papermakers can meet, pass on and share their knowledge through workshops and lectures.
Paper redacted during my master in architecture. I will put it online later. Abstract : Phase-change materials are known for their ability to store energy using the enthalpy of fusion. Using this property can improve summer comfort in buildings, by storing energy during the day and releasing it at night. However, their use in the construction world remains underdeveloped, this article aims to provide a better understanding and simulation of these materials to enable architects and engineers to develop their uses. This article uses a numerical simulation using the finite element method on CAST3M software to simulate and analyze a timber-framed wall in the face of a sinusoidal temperature load and another corresponding to the temperatures recorded in Madrid over the course of a week. Secondly, we subjected a sample of PCM to thermal loading in an adiabatic box. These experiments were used to adjust the parameters of the numerical simulation. The experiments and simulations demonstrated the benefits of PCMs in terms of increased phase shift duration and reduced temperature amplitude.
Feel free to reach out for any project inquiries, collaborations, or questions.
