Interfacial energy plays an important role in equilibrium morphologies of nanosized microstructures of solid materials due to the high interface-to-volume ratio, and can no longer be neglected as it does in conventional mechanics analysis. The present work develops an effective numerical approach by means of a hybrid smoothed extended finite element/level set method to model nanoscale inhomogeneities with interfacial energy effect, in which the finite element mesh can be completely independent of the interface geometry. The Gurtin-Murdoch surface elasticity model is used to account for the interface stress effect and the Wachspress interpolants are used for the first time to construct the shape functions in the smoothed extended finite element method. Selected numerical results are presented to study the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method as well as the equilibrium shapes of misfit particles in elastic solids. The presented results compare very well with those obtained from theoretical solutions and experimental observations, and the computational efficiency of the method is shown to be superior to that of its most advanced competitor.

In big data era, the special data with rare characteristics may be of great significations. However, it is very difficult to automatically search these samples from the massive and high-dimensional datasets and systematically evaluate them. The DoPS, our previous work [2], provided a search method of rare spectra with double-peaked profiles from massive and high-dimensional data of LAMOST survey. The identification of the results is mainly depended on visually inspection by astronomers. In this paper, as a follow-up study, a new lattice structure named SVM-Lattice is designed based on SVM(Support Vector Machine) and FCL(Formal Concept Lattice) and particularly applied in the recognition and evaluation of rare spectra with double-peaked profiles. First, each node in the SVM-Lattice structure contains two components: the intents are defined by the support vectors trained by the spectral samples with the specific characteristics, and the relevant extents are all the positive samples classified by the support vectors. The hyperplanes can be extracted from every lattice node and used as classifiers to search targets by categories. A generalization and specialization relationship is expressed between the layers, and higher layers indicate higher confidence of targets. Then, including a SVM-Lattice building algorithm, a pruning algorithm based on association rules, and an evaluation algorithm, the supporting algorithms are provided and analysed. Finally, for the recognition and evaluation of spectra with double-peaked profiles, several data sets from LAMOST survey are used as experimental dataset. The results exhibit good consistency with traditional methods, more detailed and accurate evaluations of classification results, and higher searching efficiency than other similar methods.
