GermanyWFF In 2007, Germany showed a strong growth in the aviation sector. In comparison to the European Union, the growth rates were above the average. The growth rates were limited by slow development of the airport infrastructures. To reduce stress in a long- ...
GermanyS3 Preventive passenger, luggage and cargo controls were reinforced steadily and remain indispensable in the future to ensure secure air traffic and the defence against terrorist attacks but also against increasingly violent passengers. However, the major ...
GermanyS3 Airports are complex buildings and Hubs for streams of different kinds. Their development is very dynamic and influenced by regional plans for extensions or retrofits as well as by global influences and economical and technological developments and adm ...
GermanyS3 Appropriate models for the analysis of security strategies at airports exist both macro and microscopically. None of these models allow for simulations across all modes of transport. OPAL is the most recent and promising of these approaches. It is base ...
GermanyS3 The behaviour of people in emergency situations differs from their normal behaviour because of unique unpredictable events and a fast-changing environment. People tend to rely on instincts in these situations as there are no past experiences where thei ...
GermanyS3 In the framework of S3, safety concepts and impacts of technological innovations like the integration of biometrics in the passenger handling process are analysed. The main objective of the terminal simulation is to resemble passenger flows inbound and ...
GermanySIE-A-SMGCS Technology markets increasingly demand for modular and cost-efficient solutions, which integrate products and systems that are not part of scope of services of the main equipment provider. Among other applications this holds true for airport m ...
GermanySIE-A-SMGCS Airports more frequently constitute critical bottlenecks in the European aviation system. Due to land use restrictions, noise problems and funding issues their extension is often difficult, time consuming or even impossible. To keep aviation a ...

GermanyRISKLES Security is a key issue at airports. The specialized security staff is responsible for the successful use of the technical controls. Its task is to identify dangers in a timely manner and to prevent security-related incidents. In addition to their ...
GermanySiLuFra Ensuring a secure, efficient handling of airfreight is a major challenge. This is, among other things, due to the variety of possible transport goods and the large number of potential points of attack in the process chain. Despite the importance o ...
GermanySoftParts Airports are of particular importance as national and international hubs for passenger and freight traffic. The disruption of such a node has not only local but also international effects. The secure and the trouble-free operation of airports is ...
GermanyCritical Parts According to Article 8 LuftSiG (aviation security act) the security check of employees and freight at the airport is the responsibility of the airport. The control process and the technologies to be used are described in the regulations of ...
GermanyChemAir Incidents in air cargo, such as hidden explosives in Ink cartridges from Yemen in 2011, clearly show the threads of terrorism. Although this cargo has been checked with X-ray systems several times, the explosives were detected very late. Innovativ ...
