Few mathematical methods attracted theoretical and applied researches, both in the scientific and humanist fields, as the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) made throughout the last century. However, most of these fields often developed POD in autonomous ways and with different names, discovering more and more times what other scholars already knew in different sectors. This situation originated a broad band of methods and applications, whose collation requires working out a comprehensive viewpoint on the representation problem for random quantities. Based on these premises, this paper provides and discusses the theoretical foundations of POD in a homogeneous framework, emphasising the link between its general position and formulation and its prevalent use in wind engineering. Referring to this framework, some applications recently developed at the University of Genoa are shown and revised. General remarks and some prospects are finally drawn.

This study aimed to find a proper size of Korea Coast Guard. To attain this goal, this study constructed an experimental standard quota model then calculated the proper number of employees of Korea Coast Guard, The findings of the analysis can be summarized as follows: The formula of the model constructed through reviewing related literature is as folllows: Y(manpowers) = constant + (B $\times$ the number of crimes committed) + (B $\times$ the expenditure in the general account) + (B $\times$ the number of Korea Coast Guard vessels). The proper employment size of Korea Coast Guard calculated using the model was 7,369.

The challenges of successful nasal reconstruction, which are related to the anatomical complexity of the region, have been extensively studied. Revisional operations are often required to achieve proper nasal reconstruction, with results resembling the premorbid nasal status. This is necessary to ensure the quality of life of skin cancer patients. Fundamental nasal reconstruction requires both proper soft tissue coverage and proper function. However, earlier studies in the field primarily focused on the functional aspect of nose reconstruction, although the cosmetic aspect is also an important factor to consider. In response to this need, many recent studies on nose reconstruction have proposed various refinement strategies to improve aesthetic satisfaction. Most plastic surgeons accept the nasal aesthetic subunit principle as a standard for nasal reconstruction. This review outlines the commonly used surgical refinement options and management strategies for postoperative complications based on the subunit principle. In patients with nasal defects, a proper technical strategy might help minimize revision operations and optimize the long-term results.

Objective: To three-dimensionally elucidate the effects of occlusal hypofunction on the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone proper of rat molars by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Methods: Occlusal function in the molar area was restricted by attaching an anterior bite plate on the maxillary incisors and a metal cap on the mandibular incisors of 5-week-old male Wistar rats for 1 week. The periodontal ligament space and alveolar bone proper around roots of the mandibular first molar were assessed by histology and micro-CT. Results: The periodontal ligament space was narrower and the alveolar bone proper was sparser and less continuous in the hypofunction group than in the control group. Further, both the volume of the periodontal ligament and the volumetric ratio of the alveolar bone proper to the total tissue in the region of interest were significantly lower in the hypofunction group (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Occlusal hypofunction induces atrophic changes in the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone proper of rat molars.

In this paper, the structure of e-local modules and classes of modules via essentially small are investigated. We show that the following conditions are equivalent for a module M: (1) M is e-local; (2) $Rad_e(M)$ is a maximal submodule of M and every proper essential submodule of M is contained in a maximal submodule; (3) M has a unique essential maximal submodule and every proper essential submodule of M is contained in a maximal submodule.

In several fields the soft set theory has a very vast range uses and applications. A soft group is a proper family of subgroups and a fuzzy soft group is a proper family of fuzzy subgroups. Here in this paper the concept of lattice ordered fuzzy soft groups is introduced. Also its some properties are studied and discussed. In addition, the defintion of lattice order fuzzy soft right (left) cosets and lattice order soft product of fuzzy soft subgroups and some related results are discussed to clear these ideas.

Objectives : To evaluate the annual visit days, the annual prescription days and the medical costs of hypertensive patients. Methods : The medical insurance records of 40,267 incident patients with the diagnostic code of hypertension from September 1998 through August 1999 in Daegu city were reviewed. Results : The proportion of the most proper medical care pattern group (Group VIII) who visited for 6-15 days with 240 prescription days or more a year was only 6.2%. The proper care group (Group IX) who visited for more than 16 days with 240 prescription days or more a year was 9.3%. The overall proper care group (Group VIII+IX) was therefore 15.5%. The proportion of the insufficient care group (Group I, IV) in both the number of visiting days and prescription days was 57.4%. The mean prescription day of the most proper group (Group VIII) was 29 days; the mean annual medical expenses,453,587won; the mean annual amount paid by patients, 218,013won; and mean medical expenses per prescription day, 1,483won. The proportion of the overall proper care group (Group VIII+IX) was significantly higher in adults aged 50-59, those who were enrolled in industrial workers health insurance as well as government employees and private school teachers health insurance, and those who made a higher contribution per month (p<0.01). According to the type of medical facilities, the proportion of the most proper medical care pattern group was highest in the general hospitals (9.3%) but the overall proper care group was higher in the public health centers (22.1%) and private clinics (17.1%). Conclusions : The management system of hypertension should be reinforced urgently. Therefore, it is necessary to develop guidelines including the number of visiting days per year and prescription days per visit day, and make the system provide medical facilities to more properly care for hypertensive patients.

Since John and Nirenberg introduced the BMO in early 1960 [JN], it has been one of the most significant function spaces. The significance of BMO lies in the fact that BMO is a limiting space of $L^p (p \longrightarrow \infty)$, or a proper substitute of $L^\infty$. A dual statement of this would be that the Hardy space $H^1$ is a proper substitute of $L^1$.

Let G be a Denjoy domain and let G' a Denjoy proper subdomain of G and homeomorphic to G. We consider conformal re-imbeddings of G' into G. Let G and G' are N-connected. We know that if N = 2, there is a re-imbedding f of G' into G such that G - cl(f(G')) has an interior point. In this note, we obtain the following theorem. If $N{\geq}3$, G has a Denjoy proper subdomain G' such that, for any re-imbeddings f of G' into G, G - cl(f(G') has no interior point.

A finite group G is called an NSN-group if every proper subgroup of G is either normal in G or self-normalizing. In this paper, the non-NSN-groups whose proper subgroups are all NSN-groups are determined.
