Not much to say here – this open access primer on S-II and Resilience Engineering may interest you.

It covers a few basic themes around:

• WAI vs. WAD
• ETTO (Efficiency-Thoroughness Trade-Off) principle
• Methods with accident models
• WYLFIWYF
• Resilience and resilience engineering
• FRAM

Like anything, I suggest a healthy scepticism and critical perspective (e.g. see image 2 and some of the assumptions of S-I, which I don’t necessarily agree with, nor do I think these polarising perspectives are usually helpful).
