Explosionsfeste Transportbehälter – mehr Sicherheit für das Transportwesen

Abstract

The worldwide increase of terrorist activities leads to the assumption that the civilian transportation and traffic system, too, is a preferred target of terrorist attacks. Several times, explosive charges have already been smuggled into means of public transport and also of goods traffic to intimidate and frighten the population through material destruction and massive personal damage. This is why it is necessary to adapt the containers currently used to the changed conditions, to guarantee the protection against explosives that are smuggled into aircrafts, surface vehicles and watercraft with the hand luggage.
