  1. 1. Influence of Varying Electric Light Distribution on Melanopic Equivalent Daylight Illuminance and Lighting Energy Use

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

    Author : Rebecka Ståhl; Parvathy Biju; [2023]
    Keywords : Alertness; Circadian Entrainment; Clear Sky; Correlated Colour Temperature; Daylighting; Direct Electric Lighting; Direct-Indirect Electric Lighting; Energy-Efficiency; Grasshopper; Integrative Lighting; LARK 2.0; Melanopic Equivalent Daylight Illuminance; Overcast Sky; Photopic Illuminance; Spectral Power Distribution.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Human beings in modern society spend more than 90% of their time indoors to live, work, and socialize. To improve health, quality of life and task performance, integrative lighting is designed to give the right light at the right time at the eye to stimulate circadian entrainment. READ MORE

  2. 2. Intercorrelation between sound design, binaural and non-binaural audio systems : Effects on general vertical localization precision and reaction time in a non-visual directional choice task 3D game

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälle

    Author : David Baker; [2022]
    Keywords : Spatialization; binaural synthesis; HRTF; stereo; 3D audio; videogames; ASC; Auditory spatial schema; Head related transfer function;

    Abstract : Spatialization of audio in the vertical plane has historically been limited. Instead, sound designers have used basic DSP to create pseudo height effects to explain the positions of corresponding objects. In recent years, binaural synthesis has become more widespread following an increase in the use of software rendering methods. READ MORE

  3. 3. Energy and Circadian Assessment of a Combination Between Integrative Lighting and Daylight Harvesting

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

    Author : Ribhi Attar; Omar Al Mawla; [2021]
    Keywords : ALFA; Circadian Entrainment; Correlated Colour Temperature; Cortisol; Daylighting; Daylight Harvesting; Energy efficiency; Integrative lighting; Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells; Melatonin; Melanopic Lux; Photopic Lux; Spectral Power Distribution; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study deals with the health and wellbeing of humans who work in offices as well as the energy use for the lighting. The focus is on how integrative lighting and daylight harvesting can be combined in an attempt to reduce the energy consumption while still eliciting a circadian response for the workers. READ MORE

  4. 4. Assessment of the circadian stimulus potential of an integrative lighting system in an office area

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Elif Ceren Yilmaz; Rawan Abdulhaq; [2020]
    Keywords : Alertness; Circadian Rhythm; Circadian light effect; Daylighting; Energy efficiency; Entrainment; Health; Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells; Light response; Melanopsin; Melatonin suppression; Photometric; Sleep quality; spectral sensitivity; Wavelength.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Nowadays, people spend 90% of their time indoors, thus creating a healthy indoor environment for occupants is of great importance. Lighting in office spaces is an important aspect when it comes to occupant health and well-being. READ MORE

  5. 5. Lighting Evaluation and Design for the Stockholm Metro System Based on Current Models for Non-visual Responses

    University essay from KTH/Ljusdesign

    Author : Tong Liu; [2020]
    Keywords : Non-visual Effects; Circadian Lighting; Equivalent Melanopic Lux EML ; Circadian Stimulus CS ; Melanopic Equivalent Daylight Illuminance M-EDI ; Stockholm Metro System; Light-Emitting Diode LED ;

    Abstract : Light has a wide and profound non-visual impact on the human body. It is related to the suppression or synthesis of a hormone called melatonin which regulates the human circadian clock. In Nordic countries like Sweden, lack of natural light in winter may lead to negative health effects such as circadian disorders or depression. READ MORE
