The intent of this Design Guide is to introduce the topic of sustainability, present its elements, and explain how it affects the design of lighting in process and product. This document is structured into two major sections. Section 1.0 introduces sustain ...
Windows are one of the most complex determinants of the office indoor environment and have a significant impact on the overall energy demand for electric lighting, heating and cooling, which typically account for more than 50% and often more than 70% of th ...

Natural light is a dynamic and ephemeral tool for expressing the quality of architecturalspace. As a compliment to more traditional avenues of daylighting research that assess performance in terms of quantitative illuminance goals and glare-based discomfor ...
This presentation will discuss how recent findings in photobiology about the correlation between lighting and the human circadian system can prospectively be applied to architectural design, with a focus on healthcare and housing environments. Outcomes of ...
Engineered smart lighting systems by optically sensing the environment can change the way society uses lighting. In this talk we will present our strategies on plasmon enhanced detectors enabling new applications and technologies. ...
The biology and disease oriented branch of the Human Proteome Project (B/D-HPP) was established by the Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) with the main goal of supporting the broad application of state-of-the-art measurements of proteins and proteomes by l ...
Five different Hall Effect sensors were modeled and their performance evaluated using a three dimensional simulator. The physical structure of the implemented sensors reproduces a certain technological fabrication process. Hall voltage, absolute, current-r ...
The ability to accurately and concisely describe the performance of complex fenestration systems (CFS) is essential to their effective implementation into the building industry. CFS are a diverse category of daylighting technologies that manipulate the lig ...
Background: A biological system's robustness to mutations and its evolution are influenced by the structure of its viable space, the region of its space of biochemical parameters where it can exert its function. In systems with a large number of biochemica ...
The study uses a domestic dwelling as the setting to investigate and explore the applicability of daylighting metrics for residential buildings. The metrics address daylight provision for task and electric lighting usage. In addition to these it also inves ...
