Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Light has important visual and non-visual effects on humans and high-quality light should therefore be supplied inside buildings in sufficient quantities. On the other hand, artificial lighting is responsible for a large part of an office building's electr ...
Advanced daylighting systems can be effective in increasing light levels in building spaces and reducing energy consumption due to electric lighting. However, a recurring issue found in most existing daylighting systems is the necessity of coupling the lig ...
This study uses a domestic dwelling as the setting to investigate and explore the applicability of daylighting metrics for residential buildings, including the formulation of metrics for nonvisual effects. The simulation approach used to generate the perfo ...
It is now widely accepted that the standard method for daylighting evaluation - the daylight factor – is due for replacement with metrics founded on absolute values for luminous quantities predicted over the course of a full year using sun and sky conditio ...
Within the last decades it became evident that light through the eyes is essential for both visual and non-visual functions. One of the most important non-visual functions of light is the daily entrainment of the circadian clock by environmental light cond ...
During the study presented in this article, we compared two highly energy-efficient lighting scenarios for evening office lighting (i.e. electric lighting that is typically used for approxiamately 2 h in the evening). The first of these lighting scenarios ...
The focus of the current research projects in my laboratory revolves around the question of metabolic plasticity of neuron-glia coupling. Our hypothesis is that behavioural conditions, such as for example learning or the sleep-wake cycle, in which synaptic ...
The History and Heritage of Daylighting Design in Architecture Daylight contributes to the quality of architectural spaces and provides most of the necessary lighting provision to building occupants together with a premium spectral composition and temporal ...
The combined integration of daylighting and electric lighting systems within buildings --also designated by the term “Green lighting”, which is a recent issue for the lighting research community-- allows achieving better lighting conditions for building oc ...
The UE M course aims to improve the students’ ability to see, to plan and to design light in architecture. The purpose is to consider light as a resource, a raw material, and to understand how it can be used to emphasize architectural concepts. The student ...
