Validation of spectral simulation tools in the context of ipRGC-influenced light responses of building occupants

Marilyne Andersen, Clotilde Marie A Pierson

With the growing awareness about ipRGC-influenced light (IIL) responses, design applications related to these responses are flourishing. To compare design options and optimize lighting conditions for building occupants, lighting simulations are typically u ...

Comparison of questionnaire items for discomfort glare studies in daylit spaces

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

When studying discomfort glare, researchers tend to rely on a single questionnaire item to obtain user evaluations. It is unclear whether the choice of questionnaire item affects the distribution of user responses and leads to inconsistencies between studi ...

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 ...

A simulation tool for building and lighting design considering ipRGC-influenced light responses

Marilyne Andersen, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Myrta Gkaintatzi-Masouti

The ipRGCs in the human eye mediate several effects on people, such as alertness and circadian rhythms. The spectral, temporal and spatial characteristics of light influence the magnitude of these effects. To facilitate the anticipation of the ipRGC-influe ...

Validation of Spectral Simulation Tools for the Prediction of Indoor Electric Light Exposure

Marilyne Andersen, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Myrta Gkaintatzi-Masouti

As the interest in design applications related to responses to light beyond vision is growing, two simulation tools, ALFA and Lark, have been developed to incorporate spectral characteristics of light in the evaluation of indoor lighting conditions. The sp ...

A conceptual simulation workflow to guide design decisions regarding the effects of daylight on occupants' alertness

Marilyne Andersen, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Victoria Eugenia Soto Magán

Recent developments in the lighting research field have demonstrated the importance of a proper exposure to light to mediate several of our behavioral and physiological responses. However, we spend nowadays around 90% of our time indoors with an often quit ...

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 ...

Cross-validation and robustness of daylight glare metrics

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Mandana Sarey Khanie, Clotilde Marie A Pierson

This cross-validation study evaluates the performance and robustness of twenty-two established and newly proposed glare prediction metrics. Experimental datasets of daylight-dominated workplaces in office-like test rooms were collected from studies by seve ...

Daylight Discomfort Glare Evaluation with Evalglare: Influence of Parameters and Methods on the Accuracy of Discomfort Glare Prediction

Jan Wienold, Clotilde Marie A Pierson, Magali Bodart

Nowadays, discomfort glare indices are frequently calculated by using evalglare. Due to the lack of knowledge on the implications of the methods and parameters of evalglare, the default settings are often used. But wrong parameter settings can lead to inap ...
