Processing factors affecting roughness, optical and mechanical properties of nanocellulose films for optoelectronics
This work aims to understand how nanocellulose (NC) processing can modify the key characteristics of NC films to align with the main requirements for high-performance optoelectronics. The performance of these devices relies heavily on the light transmittan ...

Alexandra Lagutova, Paul Marie Michel Madelénat
This bachelor project, conducted at the Experimental Museology Laboratory (eM+) at EPFL, focusing on immersive technologies and visualization systems. The project aimed to enhance the Panorama+, a 360-degree stereoscopic interactive visualization system, b ...
2024The mesoglea buffers the physico-chemical microenvironment of photosymbionts in the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea sp.
Anders Meibom, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Michael Kühl
IntroductionThe jellyfish Cassiopea has a conspicuous lifestyle, positioning itself upside-down on sediments in shallow waters thereby exposing its photosynthetic endosymbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) to light. Several studies have shown how the photosymbionts b ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2023INVESTIGATING MULTIPLE GLARE SOURCES IN DAYLIT CONDITIONS
Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek, Chui Ling Yuen
This study explores the effect of multiple bright light sources in the field of view on discomfort due to glare in office environments. User experiments were conducted in semi-controlled dim daylit environments mimicking open-plan offices, with glare stimu ...

EPFL2023Perceived glare from the sun behind tinted glazing: Comparing blue vs. color-neutral tints
Marilyne Andersen, Andreas Schueler, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain, Maxime Lagier
While the influence of a glare source's spectrum on sensitivity to discomfort glare has been demonstrated repeatedly under electric light conditions, it has not yet been studied under actual daylit conditions. To investigate the influence of spectral alter ...
2023Comparison of questionnaire items for discomfort glare studies in daylit spaces
Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek, Clotilde Marie A Pierson
When studying discomfort glare, researchers tend to rely on a single questionnaire item to obtain user evaluations. It is unclear whether the choice of questionnaire item affects the distribution of user responses and leads to inconsistencies between studi ...
2023Variation in Phototopic and Melanopic Lighting in Swiss Offices: A Field Study
Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Megan Nicole Danell, Clotilde Marie A Pierson
Health requirements for lighting in buildings are becoming increasingly important in building standards. Yet, there is a lack of concrete data on the lighting conditions that prevail in our workplaces, in terms of their spectral characteristics, their seas ...
