Integrating Acoustic Comfort and Daylighting in Transparent Multi-Purpose Halls: A Simulation-Based Holistic Approach

Journal of Daylighting
Multi-purpose halls are halls where many different activities, such as music, theater, speech, and shows, can be performed in the same space. Recently, multi-purpose halls illuminated with daylight have been frequently seen.

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

Buildings
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 ...

Response mechanisms between daylighting performance and skylight design variables in underground public spaces

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
Effective daylighting is crucial for underground public space sustainable development. However, existing studies focus on isolated design factors and conventional metrics, failing to holistically prevent both insufficient and excessive daylighting.
