“…Specifically speaking, sustainable financial means that in the process of developing tourism, we should also pay attention to the sustainability of development, and emphasize that the development of financial should be harmonious with local economy, society, culture and ecological environment. On the one hand, it means that the development of financial industry can not break through the local environmental carrying capacity; on the other hand, it means that the development of financial industry also needs to constantly innovate financial products and services according to the changes of economic and social forms, so as to continuously meet the market demand under different economic and social backgrounds [9,10].…”

The material technology industrialization model is in promoting the adjustment of the financial market industrial economic structure. The experiment realized the adjustment of industrial economic structure by the adsorption of nano materials. TiO2-rGO was prepared firstly, and then Mn dioxide nanoparticles (HM NPs) were synthesized. The specific surface area and pore volume were determined by N2 adsorption BET method. The infrared spectrum was obtained by infrared spectrometer (MA). The sample was heated to 900°C at 10°C to determine TGA. In order to explore the surface composition and chemical element state of the material, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used with monochromatic al Ka ray. The structure and composition of the substance can be deduced by characterization. The Zr metal organic framework was applied to the adsorption of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) in water. he experimental data show that the degradation efficiency of metronidazole is the best in the presence of visible light and hydrogen peroxide, which can reach about 80% in 60 minutes. The results show that nano materials and nanotechnology can promote the adjustment of economic structure of financial market industry, and have a great impetus to the entire financial industry.

“…Other events such as the ECOC have also been analyzed in their urban context (Vareiro, Santos, Remoaldo, & Ribeiro, 2016). Zhou, Qiao, and Ryan (2017) analyzed the use of events by Chinese cities to gain competitive advantage, and Boyle, Reaiche, Abdullah, and Murad (2016) examined the role of art events in Hong Kong in stimulating international visitation. Gration, Raciti, Getz, and Andersson (2016) analyzed valuation of events in the Sunshine Coast of Queensland, adopting the events portfolio approach earlier outlined by Ziakis (2013).…”

“…These authors articulate positive points related to staging planned events in the city and report problems that they found through empirical studies and observations of urban events (Emery et al, 2016;Fairley et al, 2016;Potwarka et al, 2016). Zhou et al (2017) investigate attempts by medium-sized Chinese cities to use events to attract people and create markets. Smith et al (2021) write about staging city events in urban public spaces.…”

Planned Events in Urban Public Spaces

Urban public space plays a key role in the urban fabric. The nature of public open space in each city depends on a number of factors such as the city’s history, geography, political issues and so on. Planned events in these spaces change the regular use of the urban space and have the potential make the city more dynamic and responsive, and to enhance cultural and economic value. Given this important role, the intervention of events in urban space deserves careful consideration in an urban design sense - something that is often neglected or given low priority in current event design processes. This study aims both to shed light on the importance of looking at planned events from the urban design perspective, and to offer a means to achieve better design of such temporary events. The key aspect has been to develop a tool that non-design professionals could use to improve the design quality and planning for temporary events in public spaces. This research consists of four components. The first study constructed an analysis of the body of knowledge on design-based criteria, whilst the second and the third studies explored the process of designing planned events. The second study analysed the content of event planning guides and protocols, and the third study involved interviewing experts who are involved in the process of planned event design. The fourth study applied design-based criteria to a case study and investigated effective and useful contemporary ways of representation through the development of a VR interactive tool. Finally, the effectiveness of the tool that was developed was examined using a user-testing and accompanying semistructured interview method. The results suggest a focussed set of design-based criteria that could be used to design and evaluate events from the urban design perspective. The review of event planning guides and protocols reveals that most urban design criteria are neglected or poorly considered in the planned temporary event design process. In addition, event designers and event organisers were interviewed, and the outcomes also showed that the consideration of urban design criteria is limited in the process of event design. Consequently, a VR-enabled assessment tool has been developed to aid in the design and evaluation of event layouts, allowing semiautomated evaluation against design-based criteria using customised virtual reality environment. Event designers agreed that the tool could be helpful in the event design process. Key participants were enthusiastic about taking the development assessment tool through to application in practice. Ultimately, this PhD research is focussed on the needs of nonexperts in urban design who create and manage temporary events in urban spaces. It enables the consideration and practical application of a set of design-based criteria in the event design process. The outcome indicates that using a VR-enhanced process that employs design-based criteria in the event design process can improve the design and delivery of planned events in urban spaces. Further refinement of the tool is possible to broaden and deepen the capabilities of the tool in other cases, but the research outcomes underscore the value and the potential of applying design-based criteria to the spatial design of public events.
