Simulating Physiological Potentials of Daylight Variables in Lighting Design
Sustainability, 2022 A holistic approach to daylight dynamics in our built environment can have beneficial outcomes for both physiological and visual effects on humans. Simulations of how daylight variables affect light levels on the horizontal work plane are compared to ...

The Role of Daylight for Humans: Gaps in Current Knowledge
Clocks & Sleep, 2020 Daylight stems solely from direct, scattered and reflected sunlight, and undergoes dynamic changes in irradiance and spectral power composition due to latitude, time of day, time of year and the nature of the physical environment (reflections, buildings ...

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021 As the primary environmental cue for the body’s master biological clock, light–dark patterns are key for circadian alignment and are ultimately fundamental to multiple dimensions of health including sleep and mental health. Although daylight provides the

Daylight in Buildings and Visual Comfort Evaluation: the Advantages and Limitations
Journal of Daylighting, 2021 Exposure to daylight significantly affects the psychological well-being of occupants by diminishing headaches, eye tensions, or stress. Daylight penetration is a matter of collaboration between building façade and perimeter zones that can be controlled ...
