Modeling and reconfiguration of solar photovoltaic arrays under non-uniform shadow conditions

The Impact of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the Construction Industry

“…With the use of various software tools that are made accessible to designers and BIM service providers, solar and shadow impacts, as well as essential components of those impacts, can be better seen or measured (Aramesh et al, 2017). If they are employed at the beginning of a project, they can provide light on topics such as how much shade a certain design receives from its environment, whether or not that design throws any shadows, and which shading approaches could be the most successful in the long run (Nguyen, 2020). It is essential to make a detailed plan that takes into account the route that the sun will take across a site as well as the shadows that will be created by neighboring objects and the structure itself.…”
