Abstract Permeable pavements are a common solution for wearing course layers in roads and urban areas. They are composed by highly porous materials with permeability several orders of magnitude above of the natural terrain. This work presents, on one hand, the experimental characterisation of the hydraulic behaviour of a permeable asphalt concrete wearing course layer and, on the other hand, the development and validation of a two-dimensional coupled hydraulic-hydrological distributed numerical model to reproduce the effect of the infiltration in the rainfall-runoff transformation and in the overland flow propagation processes. Experiments show linear and potential trends… More >
