2. 1. Lighting simulation for a more value-driven building design process

   Author : Anahita Davoodi; Thorbjörn Laike; Peter Johansson; Annika Moscati; Jönköping University; []
   Keywords : lighting simulation; lighting design; lighting quality; energy efficiency; perception;

   Abstract : Concerns about global warming are increasing, hence, the urgency to cut carbon emissions. Reducing energy consumption, including lighting energy, is seen as the primary solution. Yet, solving the environmental factor should not come at the cost of other pillars of sustainable development. READ MORE

4. 2. Do lighting control and user interface design matter to occupant behaviour? The case of optimal lighting use in non-residential buildings

   Author : Pimkamol Mattsson; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; characteristic; design; energy reduction; energy-saving behaviour; lighting control; light switch; lighting use; non-residential building; perception; user interface;

   Abstract : The lowering of energy use from artificial lighting in buildings is vital to reaching the goal of reducing CO2 emissions. Hence, changes in individuals’ behaviours regarding lighting use have received increased attention. Feedback on energy use has often been used to change individuals’ behaviour. READ MORE

5. 3. Light Rhythms : Exploring the Perceptual and Behavioural Effects of Daylight and Artificial Light Conditions in a Scandinavian Context

   Author : Federico Favero; Roberto Bresin; Arne Lowden; Ute Besenecker; Sergio Altomonte; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lighting design; Context; Light; Behaviour; Perception of light; Perception of time; Associative aspects; Architecture; Daylight; Media Technology; Medieteknik;

   Abstract : This compilation thesis collects multidisciplinary work on the study of the impact of light rhythms on perception and behaviour. The thesis was structured to answer and discuss the questions: “How does a person feel and behave inan illuminated space?” and “Do variable light conditions influence perception, appraisal and motion?”.

6. 4. Equilibrium User Centred Lighting Design Towards the development of a lighting design that is individually psychologically, physiologically and visually supportive

   Author : Monica Säter; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Psychological; physiological and visual support.; User centred lighting design;

   Abstract : Why and in what way should daylight and artificial light be designed for the indoor environment in order to fulfil goals about visual comfort and light-related health? When the outdoor and indoor interactions of man, light, colour and space (MLCS) are compared to one other, the spectral component plays the decisive role (Hollwich 1979, p. 90). READ MORE

7. 5. Bilayer Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells for Signage and Lighting Applications

   Author : E. Mattias Lindh; Ludvig Edman; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic electronics; Light-emitting electrochemical cell; Signage; Display; Luminescent line art; Inkjet printing; Direct-write printing; fysik; Physics; Electronics; elektronik;

   Abstract : Artificial light surrounds us in a manifold of shapes. It is mainly utilized for illumination, but also for graphical communication of complex and evolving messages and information, among other things. It can be generated in different ways with incandescent lamps and fluorescent tubes constituting two common examples. READ MORE
