The ILL scale Model

The scale model of the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) is usually on display in the ILL entrance hall, but is sometimes away on show at an exhibition or congres. It shows the ILL buildings and neutron facility with the instrument suite as it is planned for 2013.
The ILL model is more than simply a scale model since it provides about 500 pages of information via its software and database.

The model in short

A view of the interface

The scale model was built in 1997 by T. Heidemann and D. Laboisse. It was then computarized by A. Filhol in 1998 and then evolved through successive updates.
Version 10 (2010): this was a major upgrade of both the hardware (Theo Schmitz) and software (briq.com).
The software was based on the CMS SPIP and offered about 500 pages with:

  • > 900 images and icons (jpeg or png files)
  • > 50 movies (mp4 files),
  • 85 Flash animations,
  • > 20 animated GIFs

This material was either original or came from other pages of the ILL web site.

Version 11 (2012): this is a port of the software from the CMS SPIP to the CMS Typo3 (Coralie Bagès ansd Philippe Mourre).
The contents was updated and integrated the web site of the ILL (see instrument pages). It is also slowly migrating from Flash to HTML5 to make the pages more compatible with smartphones and Tablets.
