Dynamic Distributed Storage of Stormwater in Sponge-Like Porous Bodies: Modelling Water Uptake

An innovative concept of dynamic stormwater storage in sponge-like porous bodies (SPBs) is presented and modelled using first principles, for down-flow and up-flow variants of SPBs. The rate of inflow driven by absorption and/or capillary action into various porous material structures was computed a...
