“…This event is also a positive part of their lives. Gibson and Davidson (2004) The study objectives to examine residents " attitudes toward event development in Macau ; to identify the perception of residents towards event tourism "s effect on destination image and various impact in the community; to investigate whether residents " perceived impact affect their support to event development in Macau and provide suggest to government for future destination development.…”

“…This event is also a positive part of their lives. Gibson and Davidson (2004) stated that perception of residents for a local country music festival is that it can bring a positive image to local community.

Macau, a former Portuguese colony, was returned the territory of Macao to the People's Republic of China in 1999. It was one of the most prosperous ports in the Far East from the late of sixteenth Century to the early of seventeenth Century. Tourism, hospitality and gambling are main parts of economic structure and revenues. In 2005, Macau was written into the Historic Centre of Macau on UNESCO's World Heritage List because of Macau's rich history and diversity of cultures. This study explores the importance of residents' destination image and perception of tourism impacts in shaping their supporting for event development. The Social Exchange Model (SET) proposed residents' perceptions of tourism impacts influence destination and in turn their support for tourism development. This research aims to explore Macau local residents support for event tourism development and to examine the various impacts from conducting event tourism development in Macau. A qualitative approach adopted with a sample of 30 respondents .Semi-structured questions are asked through in-depth interviews, and recommendations are made based on the results to provide insights for industry practitioners. Result indicated resident support the event base on reduced and considered environmental impact for future suggestion. Implication for destination marketer need to make use of innovative marketing strategies such us adopted technology via social media platform as result create positive word of the mouth.

“…However, nucleation and propagation mechanisms are inconclusive and hindered by a lack of direct experimental observation to validate the theories proposed. Only recently have experimental observations on solidification cracking started to emerge: first for transparent analogues in 2001 and 2002 [11,12] and then aluminum alloys [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] from 2006 to 2017. The following crack nucleation sites have been suggested as a result: 1.…”

A three-stage mechanistic model for solidification cracking during TIG welding of steel is proposed from in situ synchrotron X-ray imaging of solidification cracking and subsequent analysis of fracture surfaces. Stage 1-Nucleation of inter-granular hot cracks: cracks nucleate inter-granularly in sub-surface where maximum volumetric strain is localized and volume fraction of liquid is less than 0.1; the crack nuclei occur at solute-enriched liquid pockets which remain trapped in increasingly impermeable semi-solid skeleton. Stage 2-Coalescence of cracks via inter-granular fracture: as the applied strain increases, cracks coalesce through inter-granular fracture; the coalescence path is preferential to the direction of the heat source and propagates through the grain boundaries to solidifying dendrites. Stage 3-Propagation through inter-dendritic hot tearing: inter-dendritic hot tearing occurs along the boundaries between solidifying columnar dendrites with higher liquid fraction. It is recommended that future solidification cracking criterion shall be based on the application of multiphase mechanics and fracture mechanics to the failure of semi-solid materials.
