Computational Evaluation of a Biomimetic Kinetic Façade Inspired by the Venus Flytrap for Daylight and Glare Performance

open access: yesBuildings
Centralized daylight control has been extensively studied for its ability to optimize useful daylight while mitigating glare in targeted areas. However, this approach lacks a comprehensive visual comfort framework, as it does not simultaneously address ...

Environmental Impact Assessment of Smart Daylighting Systems Using LCA and Measured Illuminance

open access: yesSustainability
Buildings account for a major share of global energy demand and emissions, prioritizing lighting for efficiency improvements. This study evaluates a daylight-assisted lighting system’s energy and environmental performance through a fully measurement-based approach. Monitored illuminance data were processed within a transparent workflow linking lighting

The impact of aspect ratio of buildings implementing Horizontal light pipe and shading systems on daylight performance

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
Deep-plan buildings limit daylight use in spaces far from the building perimeter, leading to uneven daylight distribution. Integrating a Horizontal Light Pipe (HLP) as an optical daylighting system, reflective light shelves, and blinds as shading systems
