Resilience engineering has consistently argued that safety is more than the absence of failures. Since the first book was published in 2006, several book chapters and papers have demonstrated the advantage in going behind 'human error' and beyond the failure concept, just as a number of serious acci...

The development of the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) has been motivated by the perceived limitations of fundamentally deterministic and probabilistic approaches to understand complex systems’ behaviour. Congruent with the principles of Resilience Engineering, over recent years the FRAM...

This handbook is written as a practical guidance for the use of the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) and the FRAM Model Visualiser (FMV). The FRAM represents a functional rather than a structural perspective on systems. To use this different understanding requires both familiarity with th...

HOW TO DO A FRAM ANALYSIS-Modelling a system using the FRAM methodology is quite straight forward and consists of a sequence of logical steps.
