    Abstract : In the initial stage of planning, considering the solar impact of urban layout on the building can effectively avoid some irreversible design issues, improve the indoor environment, and reduce energy demand. The typical architectural models of three representative cities (Copenhagen, Berlin and Hong Kong) were selected as the analysis cases in this study. READ MORE

  5. 5. Light for dairy cows : methods to measure light in dairy barns

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Sofia Lindkvist; [2019]
    Keywords : light intensity; vision; color; dairy cow; lux meter; spectrophotometer; ELF-method;

    Abstract : Cows presumably perceive light differently from humans, due to physiological dif-ferences and the eyes’ position. When designing light in dairy barns, a lux meter is the most commonly used instrument, and the design is often calculated without any daylight inlet. READ MORE
