Synopsis

Lighting Technology offers a comprehensive and complete overview on the field. It is a translation of the 5th edition of the German textbook "Beleuchtungstechnik" by Huss Media, Berlin. It introduces the fundamentals of lighting technology and discusses concepts for good lighting and daylighting design. This book is widely used in German universities and has already helped generations of students to graduate and kick-off their professional career in the field of lighting. Valuable contributions to this book came from a group of well-established lighting experts consisting of academics and design professionals. It covers the following key aspects: Fundamentals of Lighting Technology, Light Sources and Auxiliary Devices, Luminaires, Lighting Control, Illumination with Daylight, Illumination Systems for Interior Spaces, and Illumination Systems for Exterior Spaces. The motivation for this book was initiated in National lighting associations including but not limited to the German LiTG, the Dutch NSVV andthe Intelligent Lighting Institute ILI of Eindhoven University of Technology with the goal to transfer expert knowledge to everybody interested in broadening his knowledge in the field of lighting technology and illuminating engineering, like university students, researchers and lighting designers. It is suitable to serve as a supportive source of knowledge and reference when studying lighting technology or pursuing a professional qualification as ELE (European Lighting Expert) offered by ELEA, the European Lighting Expert Association. The book provides all the knowledge necessary for working on and successfully completing innovative lighting projects.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Meike Barfuß

Meike Barfuss is a professor for Electronics and LED-Systems at Fachhochschule Suedwestfalen University of Applied Sciences in Hagen, Germany. In R&D projects as well as bachelor and master theses she works on intelligent connected lighting systems. Besides the concepts for those systems she is developing application specific sensors, e.g. infrared arrays for people counting applications and colour sensors as well as LED luminaires and other electronic circuit design for lighting applications. She has authored a number of conference papers, patent applications and other publications in German and English.

As a member of the managing board of the German society of lighting

technology LiTG, she is responsible for the board of Research and Teaching and also leading the multinational workgroup of lecturers in lighting design and technology, which has come together under the LiTG. Under the direction of Meike Barfuß and Dirk Seifert a part of this team has published the German textbook Beleuchtungstechnik Grundlagen published by Huss Medien in 2016 and 2020.

Furthermore Meike Barfuß is deputy chair of the LTGR, the Ruhr area regional department of the LiTG. On a regular basis she organizes lecture events on the topics of LED and Connected Lighting.

Alexander Rosemann

Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Alexander Rosemann was appointed Chair Building Lighting in the Department of the Built Environment of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in April 2014. He took on leading roles in many (inter)national research projects in Germany and North America. Before his appointment he worked for an electrical utility in North America where his responsibilities included the advancement of energy efficiency policies, codes and standards on municipal, provincial and federal level. He was thought leader in the TU/e Intelligent Lighting Institute (ILI) as well as board member of the TU/e Data Science Center, theTU/e Center for Humans & Technology and the Nederlandse Stichting Voor Verlichtingskunde (NSVV). Among his research projects are the SPARK/IMPULS project "Creating Healthy Environments - Offices" and the STW HTSM project "OptiLight - Mathematical Optimizations for Human Centric Lighting".

Rosemann studied electrical engineering and obtained his PhD and his habilitation (venia legend) at the Technical University of Berlin, Germany. He won several prizes and awards for his efforts in the field of lighting. Besides contributions to the German educational book "Beleuchtungstechnik", he published the book "Tageslicht und Solarstrahlung" (Daylight and Solar Radiation) together with Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Heinrich Kaase (TU Berlin) in 2018.

Rosemann holds both, the German and Canadian nationality, and has supervised a number of PhD candidates at TU/e.

Dirk Seifert

Dipl.-Ing Dirk Seifert studied in the 80´ties in Ilmenau and Bratislava. He startedhis professional work 1985 at Lichtstudio Halle, a lighting and planning office in East Germany. He teaches lighting technology in different workshops and seminars for professionals on a regular basis - for example seminars for the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (Bundesanstalt für Arbeitsschutz und Arbeitsmedizin BAuA) in order to educate experts for lighting of workplaces.

In the early 90´ies he started to teach lighting and the practical use of light at the University of Art Burg Giebichenstein Halle and at Wismar University for Architectural Lighting Designers.

Starting in 2004 he works in technical lighting at Philips Lighting / Signify (today) in Hamburg. In parallel to his work he is an active member in lighting organizations (LiTG, FILD) and standardization groups (DIN).

Werner Osterhaus

Professor Osterhaus' research and teaching is driven by a passion for applying appropriate science, technology and design to architectural (day)lighting problems in order to ensure wellbeing, health and an appropriate architectural/spatial atmosphere for building occupants, as well as energy-efficiency and sustainability of the (day)lighting systems selected.
