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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Managing competing Communities of Practice: The impact of open source and knowledge-bridging on system-level learning

In this article we explore how learning across competing Communities of Practice (CoP) may benefit from actively managed processes, namely: building an explicit knowledge repository (open source), and setting incentives to crossing boundaries (knowledge-br ...

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 ...

Walking Four Machines By The Shore

Anastasia Ailamaki

Recent studies have shown that the hardware behavior of database workloads is suboptimal when compared to scientific workloads, and have identified the processor and memory subsystem as the true performance bottlenecks, when running decision-support worklo ...
