Study on hydrodynamic characteristics and influence factors of asphalt pavement runoff

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2021
A hydrodynamic model is developed for rainfall–runoff on asphalt pavement using two-dimensional shallow water equations. A simple yet precise expression is presented to compute flow velocity in order to alleviate the problems associated with numerical ...
