| Wildcard |
To truncate a word, use an asterisk (*) at the end. For example, the search "comput*" would retrieve documents that have the words "computer", "computing", "computation", etc. |
| Multiple word searches |
"OR" is implied. Documents will be retrieved that have at least one of the specified words in your search. For example a search for 'gears welds' will return results that contain at least gears or welds. |
| Refine a multiple word search |
| + |
stands for AND. A leading plus sign indicates this word must be present.
A search for 'fatigue +analysis' means the same as fatigue AND analysis, and finds documents containing both words. |
| - |
stands for NOT. A search for 'cammett -coverage' will find documents containing the word cammett but not the word coverage. |
| " |
A phrase that is enclosed within double quote (“"”) characters matches only documents that contain the phrase literally, as it was typed. A search for "ICSP-11" will return documents containing exactly that phrase. Note: If searching for a term that contains a hyphen or other operator it is important to enclose it in double quotes. |
|
| Combining operators |
Operaters can be combined. A search for cammett +coverage -tsp will retrieve abstracts that contain both the words cammett and coverage; then among those the ones that do not contain the word tsp. |
| Capitalization |
ignores capital letters. tsp is the same as TSP |

| > < |
These two operators are used to change a word's contribution to the relevance value that is assigned document. The > operator increases the contribution and the < operator decreases it. See the advanced example below. |
| ( ) |
Parentheses group words into subexpressions. Parenthesized groups can be nested. |
| ~ |
A leading tilde acts as a negation operator, causing the word's contribution to the row's relevance to be negative. This is useful for marking “noise” words. A row containing such a word is rated lower than others, but is not excluded altogether, as it would be with the - operator. |

| Advanced examples |
+weld +(>aluminum <crack)
Find rows that contain the words “weld” and “aluminum”, or “weld” and “crack” (in any order), but rank “weld aluminum” higher than “weld crack”.
+weld alumnium
Find rows that contain the word "weld", but rank rows higher if they also contain "alumnium".
+weld ~aluminum
Find rows that contain the word “weld”, but if the row also contains the word “aluminum”, rate it lower than if row does not. This is “softer” than a search for '+weld -aluminum, for which the presence of “aluminum” causes the row not to be returned at all.
