Functional resonance is a novel approach of explaining how adverse events happen in complex socio-technical systems. It stresses the fact that such systems in most of the cases function without any negative consequences due to their internal adaptiveness, called resilience. Therefore, this approach is particularly suitable to domains with relatively high level of safety, where there is not much data on incidents and accidents form the past. It can also be used for describing other analyses domains in order to better understand their resilience mechanisms. The literature review performed with help of Scopus database shows clearly that the topic of functional resonance is getting more and more attention in the scientific world. The research aiming to develop the FRAM or using it as a tool for various kinds of safety analyses is being published in the best journals from a variety of disciplines, especially the Engineering. Transportation system was the domain of the research in four investigated papers; three times the aviation transport and once – maritime transport. There was no publication in the urban transportation, although the FRAM is applicable also in this domain.
