Light has been shown to have a non-visual impact on the biological aspects of human
health, particularly on circadian rhythms. Building windows are a potential means of …

Light plays a crucial role in affecting the melatonin secretion process, and consequently the
sleep–wake cycle. Research has demonstrated that the main characteristics of lighting …

Early design decisions have a considerable influence on energy use and occupants' comfort
in buildings. Balancing these two design aspects is extremely important in educational …

Using a simulation based on a real, five-channel tunable LED lighting system, we show that
Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) is not a reasonable predictor of the biological potency …

Various environmental, architectural, and individual factors other than quantity and quality of
light, affect pupils' visual comfort in the classrooms. The simultaneous effect of these factors …

This study implemented a short-term virtual reality examination of the impacts of
environmental colour and posture changes (to simulate microgravity and lunar gravity) on …

With the implementation of China's “Healthy Building” and “Dual Carbon” strategies, daylight
health and energy-saving carbon reduction in buildings have become key research areas. In …

The present study investigates the effects of visible light transmittance in glazing and
window-to-wall ratios on the ground floor daylighting performance in a two-storey residential …

Sky models in daylight simulations represent the luminance variation across the sky-dome
for different locations, dates, times and weather conditions, but skies are typically modelled …

Due to the changes in the modern human lifestyle, the average time people spend in interior
spaces has increased, which calls attention to providing appropriate indoor lighting. Many …
