Traditional ways of thinking about the teachings of Jesus are often bound to one system of thought or another. Such ways of thinking are typically greater expressions of society's thinking (whether in the church or in the world) than what Jesus taught. Jesus is Not Safe concerns some such ways, ways that a thoughtful disciple of Jesus needs to challenge.

The monograph explores the safety of unmanned flight vehicles via the corresponding fault-tolerant control design methods.The authors analyse the safety control issues of unmanned flight vehicles, which include finite-time recovery against faults, concurrence of actuator faults and sensor faults, concurrence of actuator faults and wind effects, and faults encountered by a portion of unmanned flight vehicles in a distributed communication network. In addition, the commonly used simp...

This book focuses on the fault-tolerant cooperative control (FTCC) of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (multi-UAVs). It provides systematic and comprehensive descriptions of FTCC issues in multi-UAVs concerning faults, external disturbances, strongly unknown nonlinearities, and input saturation. Further, it addresses FTCC design from longitudinal motions to attitude motions, and outer-loop position motions of multi-UAVs. The book’s detailed control schemes can be used to enhance the fligh...
