Abstract:Cumulative runoff curves are created by applying constant rainfall of known intensity using a rain simulator. These curves allow us to determine, with good accuracy, the initial loss, the initial time of runoff, and the constant loss. The approach is to model infiltration in an unsaturated medium using a draining reservoir paradigm. Simulated rainfall is applied to a typical soil considered to be composed of two superimposed layers of different permeabilities. This approach enables us to represent the drainage… Show more
