There is a session timeout parameter in web.xml. I tested my app with a
2 min timeout to redirect the user to the home page after the session
times out. I use Tomcat but web.xml and the session timeout param are
standard on a servlet container.

Here is the web.xml file I use, the timeout param is at the end.
