Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

A SIMPLE METHOD TO DETERMINE THE DAYLIGHT FACTOR FROM THE VERTICAL DAYLIGHT FACTOR IN DIFFERENT STREET CANYON GEOMETRY

Journal of Green Building, 2016
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the main characteristics of daylight on any window in a street canyon. The sky component and the light reflected from the surroundings are described to determine the vertical daylight factor (VDF). Several street canyon types are characterized taking into account their different height/width and any level of the
