Prediction of interior daylight under clear sky conditions. [PDF]

, 1996
Most available techniques for predicting internal daylight illuminance do not take into account reflected sunlight, nor the fact that under clear sky conditions the direction of the illuminance is usually upwards, not downwards from the sky.

Spatial Daylight Autonomy Study [PDF]

, 2021
SRG has run into a problem with the current LEED V4.I when it comes to achieving daylighting credits for mid-rise buildings in the Pacific Northwest. The higher in latitude a structure is on the globe, the less potential sunlight will reach it.

Optimizing Daylight and Occupant Comfort: A Simulation-Based Analysis of Building Performance in Famagusta, Cyprus

Proceedings of the International Conference of Contemporary Affairs in Architecture and Urbanism-ICCAUA
Although much literature has examined daylighting and energy performance, few studies combine daylight, thermal comfort and occupant-centred performance under a single simulation-based framework for Mediterranean environments.

Optimized indoor daylight for tropical dense urban environments

Ambiente Construído
Studies using metrics related to dynamic sky conditions for indoor daylight performance assessment in urban environment are rare in tropical latitudes. This study applied one of these metrics, the spatial Daylight Autonomy (sDA 300,50% ≥75%, IES LM 83-12)
