Accurate Measurement of Daylit Interior Scenes Using High Dynamic Range Photography

Jakubiec, J. Alstan; Van Den Wymelenberg, Kevin; Inanici, Mehlika; Mahic, Alen (Institute for Health in the Built Environment, University of Oregon, 2016)

This paper investigates accuracy in typical High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography techniques used by researchers measuring high resolution luminance information for visual comfort studies in daylit spaces. Vignetting ...
Differing effects of four building materials on viable bacterial communities and VOCs

Mhuireach, Gwynne A.; Dietz, Leslie; Griffiths, Willem; Horve, Patrick Finn; Laguerre, Aurelie; Northcutt, Dale; Vandegrift, Roo; Gall, Elliott; Van Den Wymelenberg, Kevin (Elsevier, 2021)

Indoor environmental quality is a paramount concern among architects. Exposure to VOCs and microorganisms impacts occupant health, yet the role of materials on these exposures remains poorly understood. In this study, we ...
Estimating and Mitigating Indoor Airborne Pathogens to Support Healthy Buildings

Parhizkar , Hooman (University of Oregon, 2022-05-10)

The global pandemic has caused myriad damages to the lives of millions of people worldwide. Several studies confirm that indoor spaces are the main hotspots of COVID-19 outbreaks resulting in multiple confirmed instances ...
Evaluating Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Cross-Laminated Timber Bonded with a Soy-Based Adhesive

Yauk, Michael; Stenson, Jason; Donor, Micah; Van Den Wymelenberg, Kevin (MDPI, 2020-10)

Volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from indoor sources are large determinants of the indoor air quality (IAQ) and occupant health. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is a panelized engineered wood product often left ...
The Impact of School Facilities on Student Learning and Engagement

Coronado, Maria Camila; Feinberg, Stephen; Fretz, Mark; Kwok, Alison; Gotlin, Alexandra; Greenheck, Riley; Lee, Jean; Pfeifer, Natalie; Seely, John; Steeves, Natassjia; Van Den Wymelenberg, Kevin (University of Oregon, 2021)

This document outlines, catalogs, and summarizes a framework of literature that highlights the impact of school of facilities and classroom environments on student engagement and learning. The NetZED Laboratory at the ...
Impact of Wood on Human Thermal Perception of Transient and Steady-State Indoor Environments

Blankenberger, Denise (University of Oregon, 2019-09-18)

Humans thermally adapt and respond to the thermal environment in a number of ways, including psychologically. Preliminary evidence suggests that wood can lead to a perceived sensation of warmth while thermal history has ...
Improving the Accuracy of Measurements in Daylit Interior Scenes Using High Dynamic Range Photography

Jakubiec, J. Alstan; Inanici, Mehlika; Van Den Wymelenberg, Kevin; Mahic, Alen (Institute for Health in the Built Environment, University of Oregon, 2016)

Measuring the luminous environment enables researchers and practitioners to study perception and visual comfort in existing environments in order to decipher the components that contribute to good or problematic lighting ...
Open Home Project: Designing Modular Housing and Landscapes for Resilient Communities

Ward, Paul; Castro, Ivan; Fiorelli, Thomas; Fretz, Mark; Ko, Yekang; Lee, Junhak; Russel, Kory; da Silva Correa Leite, Carolina; Van Den Wymelenberg, Kevin (Institute for Health in the Built Environment, University of Oregon, 2020)

Affordable, energy efficient, and healthy housing is a key component of individual, community, and planetary resilience and is increasingly scarce in both rural and urban regions on the West Coast of the US and many other ...
Sensitivity Study of Annual and Point-in-Time Daylight Performance Metrics: A 24 Space Multi-Year Field Study

Nezamdoost, Amir; Van Den Wymelenberg, Kevin (Institute for Health in the Built Environment, University of Oregon, 2016-08)

With the latest published version LEED (v4), and the IES codifying two recommended annual-climate-based daylighting metrics and performance criteria, annual daylighting simulation has become even more important to the ...
The Scene Dynamism as an Aspect of Rating Indoor View Quality

Ghasemi, Seyedsohrab (University of Oregon, 2022-02-18)

Views through windows provide a visual connection to the outdoors, information about weather and time, and indoor environments. Observers looking through a window perceive dynamic scene content, but the associated benefits ...
