Influence of material solution of cover shells on stable daylight

open access: yesResearch in Agricultural Engineering, 2015
The impact of material solution of cover shells on stable daylight. Light is supplied to the stable via a roof skylight, where wired glass is the infill of skylight structure, through open side walls, whereby the influx of light on one side is influenced

The development of local solar irradiance for outdoor computer graphics rendering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Atmospheric effects are approximated by solving the light transfer equation, LTE, of a given viewing path. The resulting accumulated spectral energy (its visible band) arriving at the observer’s eyes, defines the colour of the object currently on the ...

Midlatitude ClO during the maximum atmospheric chlorine burden : in situ balloon measurements and model simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Chlorine monoxide (ClO) plays a key role in stratospheric ozone loss processes at midlatitudes. We present two balloonborne in situ measurements of ClO conducted in northern hemisphere midlatitudes during the period of the maximum of total inorganic ...

Friend, Not Foe: Lowered Tissue Reactivity to Long‐Term Polyimide Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The choice of optimal neural probe designs remains a major challenge in the field of neurotechnology. This study investigated the biocompatibility of several probe variations, including material, thickness, width, and implantation strategy. It highlights the clear advantage of soft polyimide probes over stiff silicon probes for better device ...

Evaluating of daylighting in selected office room: Case of Study

open access: yesSelected Scientific Papers: Journal of Civil Engineering, 2019
On average, we spend 90% of our time indoor particularly at work and a healthy work space is essential to that feeling of wellbeing. In a typical building, lighting accounts for up to 40% of energy consumption.

Diagonally arranged louvers in integrated facade systems - effects on the interior lighting environment

open access: yesJournal of Facade Design and Engineering, 2015
Building facades play an important role in creating the urban landscape and they can be used effectively to reduce energy usage and environmental impacts, while also incorporating structural seismic-resistant elements in the building perimeter zone.

The Sun's position in the sky

open access: yes, 2013
We express the position of the Sun in the sky as a function of time and the observer's geographic coordinates. Our method is based on applying rotation matrices to vectors describing points on the celestial sphere.
