Performance Optimization of Luminescent Solar Concentrators under Several Shading Conditions
Energies, 2021 The need of clean energy is constantly increasing, and Building Integrated PhotoVoltaic (BIPV) technologies represent valuable assets to expand even further the photovoltaic market. Thanks to BIPVs. a new concept of local electric microgrid will probably

New constraints on data-closeness and needle map consistency for shape-from-shading [PDF]
, 1999 This paper makes two contributions to the problem of needle-map recovery using shape-from-shading. First, we provide a geometric update procedure which allows the image irradiance equation to be satisfied as a hard constraint.

Effect of Sky Discretization for Shading Device Calculation on Building Energy Performance Simulations [PDF]
, 2020 The calculation of sunlit surfaces in a building has always been a relevant aspect in building energy simulation programs. Due to the high computational cost, some programs use algorithms for shading calculation for certain solar positions after ...

The Shading Cue in Context [PDF]
i-Perception, 2010 The shading cue is supposed to be a major factor in monocular stereopsis. However, the hypothesis is hardly corroborated by available data. For instance, the conventional stimulus used in perception research, which involves a circular disk with monotonic luminance gradient on a uniform surround, is theoretically ‘explained’ by any quadric surface ...

Towards Grower-friendly Apple Crop Thinning by Tree Shading [PDF]
, 2008 Light management with shading nets, which reduce sunlight by 74%, might be an alternative to chemicals commonly used for thinning on apple trees. To study the effect of shading on crop load and fruit quality, trials were conducted in field experiments ...
