IS THERE AN EFFECT OF MACULAR PIGMENT DENSITY ON DISCOMFORT GLARE IN INDOOR DAYLIGHT CONDITIONS?

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain

Discomfort glare from daylight can lower productivity and hinder effective use of daylight in buildings. Existing glare prediction models have limitations in accounting for the large inter-individual differences, mainly due to unknown physiological factors ...

Resurgence of DSCs with copper electrolyte: a detailed investigation of interfacial charge dynamics with cobalt and iodine based electrolytes

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

Deploying earth abundant copper as a redox mediator in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) has been found to be a very promising strategy to achieve higher photovoltage and power conversion efficiencies in full sun (100 mW cm(-2)) and in low/diffuse light co ...

The influence of the Level of Detail (LOD) on the assessment of the photovoltaic (PV) potential in urban environments

Stéphane Bonjour, Jérémie Stoeckli

In the 3D-modelling universe, the Level of Detail has a crucial role, as it is the case to assess the PV potential in urban environments using this kind of models. According to the CityGML standards, there are five levels of detail, going from the footprin ...

Solar thermal harvesting for enhanced photocatalytic reactions

Demetri Psaltis, Jae-Woo Choi, Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini Hashemi

The Shockley-Queisser limit predicts a maximum efficiency of 30% for single junction photovoltaic (PV) cells. The rest of the solar energy is lost as heat and due to phenomena such as reflection and transmission through the PV and charge carrier recombinat ...

Human needs as a driver for lighting design

Marilyne Andersen

Thanks to fundamental discoveries from neuroscience, biology and others, we have achieved a deeper understanding of how we interact with our environment. It is time to bring this knowledge back to architecture: we have access to the essential ingredients o ...

Light Availability Prevails Over Soil Fertility and Structure in the Performance of Asian Knotweeds on Riverbanks: New Management Perspectives

Thomas Spiegelberger

Asian knotweeds (Fallopia spp.) are considered one of the world's most invasive species. Restoring habitats dominated by these exotic species requires a better understanding of the importance of abiotic factors controlling the invasive knotweeds performanc ...

Young chondrules in CB chondrites from a giant impact in the early Solar System

Anders Meibom

Chondrules, which are the major constituent of chondritic meteorites, are believed to have formed during brief, localized, repetitive melting of dust ( probably caused by shock waves(1,2)) in the protoplanetary disk around the early Sun. The ages of primit ...

A New Method for Manufacturing Nanostructured Electrodes on Plastic Substrates

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

The present paper describes a new method for manufg. a nanostructured porous layer of a semiconductor material on a conducting plastic substrate for use in an electrochem. or photoelectrochem. cell. The method involves the deposition of a layer of semicond ...

Algorithm 743: WAPR: A FORTRAN routine for calculating real values of the W-function

David Andrew Barry

We implement W-function approximation scheme described by Barry et al. A range of tests of the approximations is included so that the code can be assessed on any given machine. Users can calculate W(x) by specifying x itself or by specifying an offset from ...

The Peregrine High-Performance RPC System

Willy Zwaenepoel

The Peregrine RPC system provides performance very close to the optimum allowed by the hardware limits, while still supporting the complete RPC model. Implemented on an Ethernet network of Sun-3/60 workstations, a null RPC between two user-level threads ex ...
