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.

Virtual Light Sensing Technology for Fast Calculation of Daylight Autonomy Metrics
Virtual sensing technology uses mathematical calculations instead of natural measurements when the latter are too difficult or expensive. Nowadays, application of virtual light sensing technology becomes almost mandatory for daylight analysis at the ...

Minimum Daylight Autonomy: A New Concept to Link Daylight Dynamic Metrics with Daylight Factors
Daylight metrics act as a useful tool to quantify the potential of natural light in an architectural space as well as the energy savings promoted by a suitable design of windows, atriums, and skylights. Accordingly, a new indoor lighting metric is proposed, minimum daylight autonomy, defined as the percentage of occupied time when an illuminance ...

Dynamic Daylight Performance Metrics for Sustainable Building Design
AbstractThe objective of this document is to promote the use of dynamic daylight performance measures for sustainable building design. The paper initially explores the shortcomings of conventional, static daylight performance metrics which concentrate on individual sky conditions, such as the common daylight factor.

Response Surface Methodology using desirability functions for multiobjective optimization to minimize indoor overheating hours and maximize useful daylight illuminance [PDF]
Improving thermal comfort often impacts daylight, creating trade-offs that remain underexplored, particularly in tropical dwellings. Overheating metrics—essential for assessing thermal conditions in warm regions—are entirely absent from daylight ...
