• Abstract

  This research gives the continuity to the previous works developed by this professor in the periods from 1995 to 1997, from 2001 to 2003 and in 2005. In the first one the winds field in the urban-canopy layer was studied; in the second one the possibility of relating air temperatures data in the urban-canopy layer with attributes of homogeneous areas classified by GIS from a satellite set…

• Validation of transects for air temperature and moisture profiles measurements in urban areas under nigh diurnal air temperatures variation., AR.BR

• Abstract

  In this research we will investigate the possibility of using areas that are homogeneous in terms of their parameters of urbanization to simplify the characterization of intra-urban thermal fields. The urban area of the city of Bauru, São Paulo, the object of the research, will initially be characterized according to urbanistic indices. Subsequently, it will be divided into homogeneous re…

• Abstract

  University libraries are, in addition to information centers, places to study and carry out academic work and, ultimately, socialization. Thus, the spaces that compose it must be adequate to these different functions; consequently, the lighting should create the ambiance expected for them. The goal of this research is to evaluate how users of the different places that compose a university…

  Visual perception and lighting of the UNESP central library in Bauru (SP) campus, BP.IC

• Abstract

  The lighting of classrooms plays an important role in school performance, not only by providing the appropriate environment for the realization of visual activities, but also to create well-being feeling with the environment. This research aims to determine how the lighting quality indicators relate to indicators of positive perception of the classroom environment. A case study will be ca…

• Abstract

  By studying the ergonomics of the built environment or visual interfaces, it is often interesting to hear the view of the object from the subject. Due to the complexity and high cost of specialized systems for image acquisition such as the eye-tracking technology, it is proposed, in this study; to allow the use of instruments of conventional imaging, such as digital cameras and webcams, f…
