PREDICTING DAYLIGHT ILLUMINANCE IN URBAN CITY USING STATISTICAL REGRESSION TECHNIQUES
Prediction of daylight illuminance has become the prime concern for building designers. This paper presents the daylight illuminance frequency distribution, correlation coefficients amongst climate variables and linear regression models developed for moderate climate zone. The emphasis of the present study is to predict daylight illuminance intensities

The Impact of Lighting Conditions on Users' Alertness and Working Memory in Confined Spaces
ABSTRACT Confined spaces, characterized by limited natural ventilation, the absence of windows, and restricted access to natural light, present distinct challenges. While most studies focus on lighting's effect on sleep, confined spaces are now more often used for short‐term work‐rest cycles, especially in office settings.

Using solar screens in school classrooms in hot arid areas: the effect of different perforation on daylighting levels [PDF]
Hot arid areas are endowed with an abundance of clear skies. Thus, the solar energy available can significantly raise the temperature of interior spaces and also result in an uncomfortable visual environment due to glare and poor uniformity ratios.
