This study projects electricity savings, cost-benefit analysis and emission reduction of lighting retrofits in Malaysia residential sector. The cost-benefit is determined as a function of energy savings due to retrofit of more efficient... more
Evidence linking home hazards to falls has not been well established. The evidence-based approach to fall-risk assessment in longitudinal studies becomes difficult because of exposures that change during follow-up. We conducted a cohort... more
ABSTRACT: Cassava is one of the most important food crops in Africa. Meristem culture is an effective method of eliminating viruses and other systemic diseases spread through the vegetative propagation of stems. However, in semi-arid... more
During the past few years, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been increasingly studied due to their emerging applicability. However, some of the properties of existing OLEDs could be improved, such as their overall efficiency and... more
Human vision works in a complex way in the mesopic luminance range which is not yet clearly understood, although several important visual tasks are performed at these luminance levels. In this study, spectral data for detection visibility... more
Residential buildings are responsible for a large share of the total energy consumption. It is well-known that the correct use of natural and artificial lighting can improve energy efficiency. However, lighting in residential buildings... more
Seminar held as a Visiting Lecturer at the Polytechnic University in Milan, Italy - School of Design, Course of Ligh Art and Lighting Design (Reference Professor: Gisella Gellini).
To investigate how light intensity changes as the distance increases from the tip of the light guide. Ten different curing light/light guide combinations were used. Light intensity was measured at 0, 3, 6, and 10 mm from the tip of the... more
On Wednesday, Dec. 21, nations in the Northern Hemisphere will mark the winter solstice – the shortest day and longest night of the year. For thousands of years people have marked this event with rituals and celebrations to signal the... more
وجود پارک ها در خط ساحلی می تواند به جذب مخاطب به این فضاها کمک کند. پارک های شهری و به طور خاص بخشی از فضاهای سبز عمومی هستند که بازدهی اجتماعی دارند و عموم مردم از آنها در گذران اوقات فراغت ،تفریح و مصاحبت با دوستان و گردهمایی اجتماعی و... more
Contrary to the implication of the term “lightness constancy”, asymmetric lightness matching has never been found to be perfect unless the scene is highly articulated (i.e., contains a number of different reflectances). Also, lightness... more
Despite the considerable injury burden attributable to falls at home among the general population, few effective safety interventions have been identified. We tested the safety benefits of home modifications, including handrails for... more
Reflections on LUZBOA by Kai Becker. Obviously not my text, but certainly one where a few my ideas resonate with the author's experience of the city. Reflexões sobre a LUZBOA, por Kai Becker. Obviamente, o texto não é meu, mas certamente... more
Resumo O presente trabalho aborda a questão da influência da temperatura de cor da luz artificial LED juntamente com a luz natural e seus efeitos não visuais no padrão circadiano de seres humanos. Dessa forma, foi realizado um estudo... more
