Analyzing Skid Resistance and Tire/Road Noise on Porous Pavement Using Numerical Modeling
… and tire/road noise are major concerns in pavement functional performance. Porous pavement enhances skid resistance through inner drainage and reduces tire/road noise through acoustic absorption. This study attempts to explore the development of numerical models in predicting skid …

Effectiveness of Porous Pavement and an Infiltration Trench as Urban Best Management Practices
… study is a demonstration of the effectiveness of porous pavement and an infiltration trench as Best Management Practices (BMPs) in the reduction of stormwater and its constituents. The field work of the study was conducted from 1986 through 1988 and the report was written in 1990 and finalized in …

Development of a Method to Compare Storm Water Best Management Practices at The University of Toledo
… was developed to analyze three different BMPs (porous pavement, bioswales, and rain gardens) for effectiveness. A comparison is made using input parameters including water quality information and permeable/impermeable areas, and potential. BMPs are ranked based on flow quantity reduction, …

Rainfall-runoff control: variably saturated transport for an infiltration system controlling water quality and quantity
… reactor (PER) utilizing Fe-coated-sand and porous pavement (CPP) is examined specifically across three representative rainfall-runoff events. Total concentrations and mass for metals (Zn, Pb, Cu and Cd), suspended solids, and Chemical oxygen demand were reduced significantly. Rainfall-runoff …

The Impact of Rochester Storm Sewers on the Water Quality of the Lower Genesee River: A Modeling Approach Using PCSWMM
… 25% of subcatchment impervious area to porous pavement reduced flow and TP and TSS loads by up to 15% and treating ten percent of impervious roof runoff with rain barrels could reduce flows and loads up to eight percent. Further research should be conducted to determine the placement of …

Assessment of integrated green infrastructure-based stormwater controls in small to large scale developed urban watersheds
… curb extension biofilters, cascade biofilters, porous pavement, rain gardens monitored at small scales (individual GI performance) and monitored at large scales (overall integrated GI performance and their impact on combined sewer overflows (CSOs), and 3) Cincinnati, OH with three study sites …

Water Fluxes in Soil-Pavement Systems: Integrating Trees, Soils and Infrastructure
… which recently are being covered with permeable pavements. Pavements are known to alter soil moisture and temperature, and may have implications for tree growth, root development and depth, drought resilience, and sidewalk lifting. Furthermore, tree pits are often the only unsealed soil surface …
