This paper aims to review the achievements of previous studies addressing the capability of
atriums for providing adequate levels of daylight and visual comfort. This study also performs …

Image-based visual discomfort analysis has strong potential to detect glare in order to
predict occupant satisfaction with a space. However, in order to design buildings with …

Building performance simulations and models of human visual comfort allow us to predict
daylight-caused glare using digital building models and climate data. Unfortunately, the …

The atrium space represents one of the most energy-intensive areas within buildings. This is
especially evident in college teaching buildings, where the inclusion of atriums often leads …

This study investigated the impact of well geometry on the amount of daylight availability in
the adjoining spaces around atria with vertical top-lit forms under overcast sky condition in …

The conventional approach to predicting interior illumination and visual discomfort in
buildings is to run a ray tracing simulation with high accuracy settings, wait while the …

With the emergence of climate-based daylight modeling and dynamic daylight metrics,
daylight simulation now encompasses a range of sky conditions and sun angles throughout …

This thesis examines the concept of incorporating daylight into a school using a heliodon
device and Illuminance Rendering in Cloud for Revit software to create a physical and …
