Abstract

The vehicle-ramming terror attacks of the last years pointed out a critical issue: all of us could be victims during a walk in our cities. For this reason, crowded places are now protected by concrete barriers. But are these devices effective? Starting from this question, UniBG and Besenzoni Spa developed a new mobile and good-looking barrier consisting in a flowerpot filled with water. Its high deformability and the capability of the water to take away a lot of energy allow to stop a 3500 kg vehicle at 64 km/h and the obstacle in few meters. A new startup (BDP Srl) was founded.
