Grand Prix National de l’Ingénierie – Syntec 🏗️
L’hypercube is proud to have contributed to the Grand Prix National de l’Ingénierie 2021, won by the AREP teams, for tranformation project of Saint-Michel Notre-Dame station (RER C).
For L’hypercube, it’s recognition of the Air Quality expertise that was born out of this project in 2017.
After the preliminary study phases, which were marked by the development of predictive models of air quality in stations , a fruitful collaboration with the CSTB enabled us to develop a simulation framework to estimate the ventilation induced by train passages (the piston effect), the main
We then had to deal with other site constraints, such as acoustics and flood protection. It’s precisely this collective and iterative work by the various engineering teams that has been rewarded by the GPNI!
Below is a video presentation of the project’s main challenges:
