SUMMARYThis paper proposes an interval-based approach in order to obtain the obstacle-free workspace of parallel mechanisms containing one prismatic actuated joint per limb, which connects the base to the end-effector. This approach is represented through two cases studies, namely a 3-RPR planar parallel mechanism and the so-called 6-DOF Gough–Stewart platform. Three main features of the obstacle-free workspace are taken into account: mechanical stroke of actuators, collision between limbs and obstacles and limb interference. In this paper, a circle(planar case)/spherical(spatial case) shaped obstacle is considered and its mechanical interference with limbs and edges of the end-effector is analyzed. It should be noted that considering a circle/spherical shape would not degrade the generality of the problem, since any kind of obstacle could be replaced by its circumscribed circle/sphere. Two illustrative examples are given to highlight the contributions of the paper.

We present an algorithm to characterize the set S={x∊Rl:f(x)>0}=f−1(]0,∞[m) in the framework of set inversion using interval analysis. The proposed algorithm improves on the algorithm of Jaulin et al. (Jaulin, L., Kieffer, M., Didrit, O., and Walter, E., 2001, Applied Interval Analysis, Springer, London). The improvements exploit the powerful tool of monotonicity. We test and compare the performance of the proposed algorithm with that of Jaulin et al. in characterizing the domain of robust stability for the speed control loop of a jet engine. The results of testing show that the proposed algorithm encloses S more accurately, meaning that it gives a larger region of compensator parameter values for which the system stability is guaranteed and a smaller region of the same for which the system stability is indeterminate.
