Road lighting and headlights: Luminance measurements and automobile lighting simulations

This paper focuses on lighting dimensioning and lighting quality of traffic lighting. The work considers the factors that are important in creating optimal lighting conditions and luminous environment for night-time driving. The work is based on simulating, measuring and analyzing traffic lighting. The work introduces a new method for road luminance measurements and analysis. For simulation of ...

Method for Calculation of Sky Light Luminance Aiming at an Interactive Architectural Design

Recently, computer graphics are frequently used for both architectural design and visual environmental assessment. Using computer graphics, designers can easily compare the effect of the natural light on their architectural designs under various conditions, such as different times of day, seasons, atmospheric conditions (clear or overcast sky) or building wall materials. In traditional methods ...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
