This paper details a complete hardware and software system designed to aid in the visual inspection and structural condition monitoring of railway tunnels. The system consists of two main components; an image acquisition system for data collection and an image processing software package for data analysis. The image acquisition system consists of an array of cameras with overlapping fields of view,...
A method is proposed for estimating the electricity consumption (and associated carbon emissions) of a defined electrical-lighting configuration in an office building, accounting for the daylight contribution from windows and rooflights. Heat gains due to lighting for an average day in each month may be used to aid assessments of the effect of lighting systems on the cooling load, known to be high...
Light pipes are simple means of directing daylight (diffuse and direct light) into interior spaces. Previous work by the authors described the initial work on a luminous flux and illuminance predictive model for straight light pipes, using a basic equation for illuminance distribution as a function of horizontal distance. Further work has now produced a model that uses the cosine law of illuminance...
