Abstract
Societal functions constitute of public and private organisations and companies that provide commodities and services that are vi-tal for the functioning of the modern society. The public are highly dependent on these vital societal services and commodities, such as power supply, health care and education. In this paper we present an application of a method for collecting and structuring data and a simulation model with the aim of capturing interdependencies between societal functions based on the concept of flows. In this paper several types of analyses that can be performed with the collected data are exemplified. It is concluded that the information gained by the analyses performed in the present paper can constitute a valuable contribution to facilitate a common understanding of the effect of interdependencies between a wide variety of societal actors as well as support decisions related to holistic cross-societal risk and vulnerability management efforts.
