Abstract
A porous media model is derived describing the accumulation and flow o f fluid within a domain. The model consists of a differential expressi on determining the saturated fluid subdomain and a relation describing the pressure distribution within that domain. The wellposedness and n umerical solution of a simplified problem is presented and a validatio n using field rainfall outflow data collected from a highway roadbed i s discussed.
