Simple mathematical models to link climate-based daylight metrics with daylight factor metrics and daylighting design implications. [PDF]
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.

The practical implications of the EN 17037 minimum target daylight factor for building design and urban daylight in several European countries. [PDF]
Sufficient daylight in the indoor environment of buildings is important not only for vision and well-being as daylight also has significant non-visual effects on the human organism.

Factors influencing the value of daylight factor [PDF]
Daylight has been used for centuries as the main source of light in the interior and has always been an implicit part of architecture since the buildings existed.

Nonparametric distribution of the daylight factor [PDF]
Kernel density estimation (KDE) approximates the distribution of statistical data similar to the histogram. The histogram of data is a special kind of the Kernel density.

Myopia and daylight-A combination of factors. [PDF]
The incidence of myopia among school children has risen markedly over the last three decades. In urban areas of South and East Asia, as many as 80–90% of young adults are now myopic. This trend is occurring elsewhere around the world. During the COVID-19 lockdowns, children in many countries were confined indoors and spent an undue amount of time ...

Comparison and development of daylight simulation software – A case study [PDF]
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
