Unravelling Cascading Phenomena in Sociotechnical Systems: A Systematic Review and Modelling Framework

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article investigates the characterization of cascading phenomena within sociotechnical systems through a systematic review and the development of a conceptual modelling framework. Cascading phenomena, often described using terms such as ripple effect, domino effect, cascading failure, risk propagation and cascading effect, capture the far‐

A Preliminary Exploratory Measurement Model for Systems Thinking in Defence and Aerospace Engineering: A Bifurcated Framework Developed via Multiple Correspondence Analysis

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern engineering faces a ‘complexity crisis’ characterized by interlinked, multidisciplinary ‘wicked problems’, particularly within the defence and aerospace sectors. Although systems thinking is recognized as a critical competency for navigating this environment, empirical quantitative frameworks for its measurement remain limited.

A Semi‐Quantitative Methodology for Chemical Process Resilience Assessment

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
A new semi‐quantitative framework is proposed for process resilience assessment. Safety/security, productivity, and quality are integrated into the resilience evaluation. Dynamic simulations are used to quantify resilience as a time‐dependent system response.
