Produktinformationen zu „Daylight Science and Daylighting Technology “
Sunlight profoundly influences the Earth's atmosphere and biosphere. Nature fuels the evolution of all living things, their visual systems, and the manner in which they adapt, accommodate, and habituate.
Sun luminance measurements serve as data to calculate typical changes in the daily, monthly, and annual variability characteristics of daylight. Climate-based sky luminance patterns are used as models in predicting daylighting calculation and computer programs applied in architecture and building design. Historically, daylight science and daylighting technology has prioritized photometric methods of measurements, calculation, and graphical tools aimed at predicting or evaluating the daylighting of architectural design alternatives.
However, due to a heightened awareness of general health and well-being, sunlight exposure and freedom from visual discomfort while undertaking visual tasks are now equally prioritized. Therefore, in order to assure optimal environmental quality, daylighting technology must be based on sound science.
Daylight Science and Daylighting Technology, by Richard Kittler, Miroslav Kocifaj, and Stanislav Darula, sketches the entire evolution of daylight science from atmospheric science through apt visual workplace psychophysics.

Klappentext zu „Daylight Science and Daylighting Technology “
Daylight continues to be revisited with respect to human environmental wellbeing and health requirements as well as in relation to energy saving strategies. The theories of insolation, daylighting of urban spaces, and built interiors is a complex interdisciplinary research entity with historical advances that encompass many different issues. Topics discussed include the development of visual systems, human adaptation and creation of the built environment, determination of sunlight and skylight under different geophysical conditions, and calculation prediction of windows and the daylight distribution in interiors. In this book, an overview and summary of all relevant relations within daylight science are discussed and closely linked to historically simplified assumptions valid in special cases. Readers will benefit from the general overview in daylight theory, calculation methods, and introduction to practical solutions for design problems.
