Excerpt from Numerical Simulation of Jet Roof Geometry for Snow Cornice Control
In many areas, snow cornices and the snow cushion that often forms downslope from them present serious safety problems. Snow avalanches triggered by falling cornice blocks or by failure in the snow cushion are common on such Slopes. Strategic placement of a simple wind deflector, called a jet roof, at the ridge crest Will often alleviate the pro blem by deflecting the wind down the lee slope and preventing or reducing the formation of the cornice and changing the snow deposition pattern on the slope. This paper gives information regarding the location and shape of such structures based on a computer program modeling of wind flow patterns over the ridge.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the use of jet roofs as wind deflectors to prevent and reduce snow cornice and cushion formation. As wind accumulates on the lee slope of mountains, it can lead to dangerous avalanches. By deploying a jet roof, wind is redirected down the slope and kept from forming snow deposits. The book details a mathematical model created by the author to help predict the size and shape of jet roofs needed to most effectively alter wind patterns and reduce the risk of avalanches. Jet roof placement, length, and angle relative to the slope are all considered in this model. The author concludes that jet roofs are valuable assets in avalanche control when properly configured, offering a valuable design tool for their implementation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
