Effect of window glazing color and transmittance on human visual comfort

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain

: Occupants’ visual comfort in an indoor space strongly depend on the quantity and quality of the daylight inside the space which can be altered with the type of window glazing. In this study, we compared the visual comfort perception of participants with ...

Subjective assessment of visual comfort in a daylit workplace with an electrochromic glazed facade

Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain

Electrochromic (EC) glazing is increasingly employed in building facades to achieve better visual comfort for the occupants. EC glazing can modulate the light entering through the facade by varying the solar transmittance of the glass and therefore can wor ...

Alertness in work environments : on the role of indoor daylight exposure

Victoria Eugenia Soto Magán

Light enables to see the world around us, while playing a key role in our biological functioning. During the last decades, light has become an important research topic for chronobiologists and neuroscientists, and their findings are increasingly interwoven ...

User Evaluations of Contrast-Dominant Discomfort Glare Dim Daylit Scenarios: Preliminary Findings

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

Discomfort glare metrics typically consider at least one of the two effects of discomfort glare-saturation and contrast-in their equation. The former occurs when there is an excessively bright glare source in the field of view, while the latter occurs when ...

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 ...

Temperature–Color Interaction: Subjective Indoor Environmental Perception and Physiological Responses in Virtual Reality

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo, Kynthia Chamilothori

Objective Temperature–color interaction effects on subjective perception and physiological responses are investigated using a novel hybrid experimental method combining thermal and visual stimuli from real and virtual reality (VR) environments, respectivel ...

From university to industry - challenges in upscaling optical microstructures for daylight redirection in buildings

Andreas Schueler, André Gabriel Kostro, Josef Andreas Schuler, Philippe Couty

In this paper we present some of the challenges faced when upscaling optical microstructures from a lab scale 1x1 cm sized proof of concept sample to a square meter sized object that can be installed in a building. The optical microstructure in question is ...

Novel daylighting system based on advanced embedded optical microstructures for various facade orientation and climates

Jing Gong

The design of highly glazed building has become a worldwide trend in modern architecture. However, glazing may induce large thermal loss in winter while increase cooling load in summer, and it may also cause glare. In order to solve the problems, a novel m ...

Variation in thermal, visual and overall comfort evaluation under coloured glazing at different temperature levels

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo

Within the scope of a broader research project about daylight and temperature interaction effects on human responses, this paper investigates how daylight transmitted through spectrally selective glazing (blue, orange and a reference neutral) affects therm ...

Typologie des écoles primaires en Suisse de 1945 à 2015 et stratégies d'éclairage naturel

Jean-Denis Bernard Marie Ghislain Thiry

Following the path initiated by Britain and the United States, where the evolution of education and the importance of the architecture of schools were debated vigorously by school boards, and mainly under the influence of Germany and the Netherlands, Switz ...
