Simple mathematical models to link climate-based daylight metrics with daylight factor metrics and daylighting design implications [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Determination of interior daylight illuminance is the key step in daylighting schemes. Recently, climate-based daylight metrics (CBDMs) which considers the real climatic data for the location has been adopted to evaluate the dynamic daylight performance.

DAYLIGHTING PERFORMANCE OF HORIZONTAL LIGHT PIPE BRANCHING ON OPEN PLAN OFFICE SPACE [PDF]
Dimensi: Journal of Architecture and Built Environment, 2015 For daylighting purpose, office buildings should have a shallow plan and increase the ratio of surface to building’s volume. However, intensive use of air-conditioning drives office building’s plan to be deep with a minimum surface to volume ratio.

Comparison and development of daylight simulation software – A case study [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 Working with daylight simulations on a regular basis, the authors discovered that it is increasingly challenging to achieve daylight criteria in new building projects. In addition to complex building designs, a new European Standard was published in 2018

Predicting Daylight Illuminance for 15 CIE Standard Skies Using a Simple Software Tool
Frontiers in Sustainable Cities, 2022 Estimation of internal daylight availability is the key step in evaluating various daylighting schemes. Interior daylight is often expressed as daylight factor under the traditional International Commission on Illumination (CIE) overcast sky. Nonetheless,
