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 ...

Assessing the gap between a normative and a reality-based model of building LCA

Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Endrit Hoxha, Stefano Cozza

Recognized as a powerful methodology for the evaluation of environmental burdens, life cycle assessment (LCA) must be performed with close-to-reality inputs to be robust and accurate. However, the necessary real-world data is hardly available at the design ...

Optimal Design of Heat-Integrated Water Allocation Networks

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Maziar Kermani

Industrial operations consume energy and water in large quantities without accounting for potential economic and environmental burdens on future generations. Consumption of energy (mainly in the form of high pressure steam) and water (in the form of proces ...

Signatures of sea level changes on tidal geomorphology: Experiments on network incision and retreat

Andrea Rinaldo

How do tidal networks respond to changes in relative mean sea level (RMSL)? The question on whether the morphological features of a tidal landscape retain signatures of past environmental forcings, or are in equilibrium with current ones, is critical to ou ...

Hedging Your Bets by Learning Reward Correlations in the Human Brain

Human subjects are proficient at tracking the mean and variance of rewards and updating these via prediction errors. Here, we addressed whether humans can also learn about higher-order relationships between distinct environmental outcomes, a defining ecolo ...
