High-quality industrial development(HID)is a requirement of the modern economy and regional development.This paper designed a four-dimensional HID evaluation framework according to the logic of"development foundation-development theme-development sub-ject-development guarantee."Specifically,momentum cultivation as the foundation,efficiency improvement as the theme,and quality promotion as the subject are the three pivots driving the industrial transformation from high-speed development to high-quality development.A stable economic environment and a harmonious social environment are the guarantees of HID.Choosing the π-shaped Curve Area of the Yellow River basin in China as the study area,this paper measured the spatiotemporal pattern of HID and its four dimensions using the entropy-weighted TOPSIS method based on relevant economic indicators.Besides,the ob-stacle recognition model was adopted to identify the obstacles to HID.Findings include:From 2005 to 2019,the HID in the Curve Area was characterized by spatial unevenness and rela-tive stability.The industrial structure and industrial layout were more rational in provincial capitals and large cities than in other cities.The spatial organization of the industrial economy presented an incompact polycentric structure,and the industrial association was relatively weak in the curve's upper reaches.Almost all cities have experienced an increase in sin-gle-factor productivity,and technological progress contributed most to the total factor produc-tivity growth.During the study period,the development momentum stabilized at high levels in Inner Mongolia while at low levels in resource-based cities.The development environment in most cities has remained stable,and the social welfare has increased and distributed more equitably in the Area.The technological introduction and the rationalization of the industrial structure were the primary obstacle factors for the Area in realizing HID,and the upgrading of the industrial location index was critical to the upper reaches of the curve.This paper was expected to provide new ideas for studying industrial transformation and practical policy proposals for regional development in the Curve Area.
