Review of simulating four classes of window materials for daylighting with non-standard BSDF using the simulation program Radiance [PDF]
, 2013 This review describes the currently available simulation models for window material to calculate daylighting with the program "Radiance". The review is based on four abstract and general classes of window materials, depending on their scattering and ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Photothermal, macroporous lignin‐based cryogels are engineered to convert sunlight into low‐grade heat. Integrated as stacked beds in a drum‐type device, a thin copper interlayer transfers waste heat between beds, enabling interlayer heat recovery and continuous solar cycling.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A transparent, laser‐microscribed glass platform enables cancer diagnosis within 1 h—much faster than histology, which takes days, and free from the chemical or contrast risks of MRI or CT scans. The antibody‐functionalized rough glass surface captures viable cancer cells directly from suspension, allowing instant optical readout and offering a rapid ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a novel chloro boron subphthalocyanine/polymer blend OFET sensor achieving 0.005 ppb limit of detection for ammonia at room temperature and high selectivity against similar amines. An original theoretical framework is proposed to describe the sensing mechanism, relating analyte molecular volume and Lewis basicity to sensor ...

Daylight Measurement Data required for Daylighting Calculation.
Journal of Light & Visual Environment, 1991 Why should we collect daylight measurement data? One of the most important purpose of the collection is to use for daylighting calculation. The calculation can be classified to two, (A) for the research and (B) for the practical application. Since it is difficult to predict at present time what kind of research we do in future and to specify a class of
