Evaluation of the luminous environment in open-plan offices with skylights

open access: yes, 2012
High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging was used to collect luminance information at workstations in 2 open-plan office buildings in Queensland, Australia: one lit by skylights, vertical windows and electric light, and another by skylights and electric light ...

Changing academic work places: the introduction of open-plan offices in universities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relation between the spatial intervention of open-plan offices in a university, the consequential change in work practices of faculty members, and how these practices appropriate the designed ...

Optimizing User Distributions in Open-Plan Offices for Communication and Their Implications for Energy Demand and Light Doses: A Living Lab Case Study

open access: yesBuildings
Open-plan offices have established themselves as economically efficient working environments and promote communication. Zoned lighting concepts have proven to be particularly energy-efficient and are determined by the respective occupancy profile. Due to

Localized lighting in open-plan offices

open access: yes, 2016
Controlling lighting conditions at desk level has proven its energy savings potential. However, in open-plan offices without partitions separating desks this local control might come at expense of users’ comfort. An explorative study in an office building in the Netherlands revealed the influence of local control on users’ satisfaction with the ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Breaking Out of Open-Plan: Extending Social Interference Theory Through an Evaluation of Contemporary Offices

open access: yes, 2020
Offices are evolving rapidly to facilitate organizational cost reductions and to better support contemporary working practices. We investigate relationships between the design of contemporary offices (physical proximity and breakout areas) and autonomy ...

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.
