Is there a difference in how people from different socio-environmental contexts perceive discomfort due to glare from daylight?

Jan Wienold, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Magali Bodart

Exposure to daylight has much to offer and should be optimised to maximise its potential. In order to harvest its benefits, any visual discomfort from daylight should be anticipated and minimised. Hence, there is the need to predict discomfort from dayligh ...

Validation of Spectral Simulation Tools for the Prediction of Indoor Daylight Exposure

Marilyne Andersen, Clotilde Marie A Pierson

A growing area of research focuses on the relationship between ocular light exposure and the non-visual responses. In order to accelerate research on this topic and improve building design, reliable spectral simulation tools are needed. This study aims at ...

Raytraverse: Navigating the Lightfield to Enhance Climate-Based Daylight Modeling

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Stephen William Wasilewski

We propose a new method for climate-based daylight modeling (CBDM) based on simulating and evaluating only the most important features. By adaptively sampling the temporal lightfield that describes daylight in buildings, our method escapes the curse of dim ...

Interfacial engineering for competitive Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells production

Natalie Flores Diaz

Renewable energy deployment and implementation of a circular economy will play a crucial role in decreasing CO2 emissions to meet the target from the Paris agreement. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) can be designed in various colors and transparency for ...

Data-driven optimization of building layouts for energy efficiency

Andrew James Sonta

One of the primary driving factors in building energy performance is occupant behavioral dynamics. As a result, the layout of building occupant workstations is likely to influence energy consumption. In this paper, we introduce methods for relating lightin ...

Modeling specular transmission of complex fenestration systems with data-driven BSDFs

Jan Wienold

A Bidirectional Scattering Distribution Function (BSDF) describes how light from each incident direction is scattered (reflected and transmitted) by a simple or composite surface, such as a window shade. Compact, tabular BSDFs may be derived via interpolat ...

Review of subjective quality assessment methodologies and standards for compressed images evaluation

Touradj Ebrahimi, Michela Testolina

Acquiring and exchanging a large number of pictures has become nowadays a common practice. Therefore, new image compression solutions to optimize the storage resources are in constant demand. In this context, it is essential to have a solid methodology to ...

Evaluation of daylighting strategies based on their embodied carbon emissions: a first methodological framework and case study

Marilyne Andersen, Nazanin Rezaei Oghazi, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme

The impact of daylighting strategies on a building’s carbon emissions have so far been assessed mostly based on the building’s use phase and their resulting operational benefits, overlooking embodied carbon emissions of material production, construction, m ...

Perovskitoid-Templated Formation of a 1D@3D Perovskite Structure toward Highly Efficient and Stable Perovskite Solar Cells

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Dongqin Bi, Haibing Xie

Longevity is a long-standing concern for organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Recently, the use of low dimensional perovskite has been proven to be a promising strategy to improve the stability of PSCs. Herein, it is demonstrated that 1D ...

Self-commissioning glare-based control system for integrated venetian blind and electric lighting

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Laurent Deschamps, Ali Motamed

Rule-based control logics have proven to be efficient for automation of shading and lighting systems. However, successful commissioning of these systems for multiple stores non-residential buildings, regardless of the control logic, requires time-consuming ...
