Clogging-up of a stormwater infiltration basin: a laboratory approach using image analysis
Résumé
The main function of stormwater infiltration basins is to favour stormwater drainage. However, the gradual clogging-up process caused by sediment accumulation inside these basins raises questions about their hydrodynamic functioning. Therefore, the objective of this work is to study the evolution of sediment pore distribution and its relationships with water retention and infiltration characteristics.
