Search Strategies
Using a combination of KEYWORDS with BOOLEAN OPERATORS between them will help maximize your relevant search results. The 3 common Boolean operators are AND, OR, and NOT.
- Example: lightning strike AND power pole
Use parenthesis to group terms together.
- Example: (hurricane AND power poles) OR transmission lines
Use quotes to generate searches with words grouped in exactly that order.
- Example: "3d printing" OR "additive manufacturing"
Use * to include all derivatives of a word:
- Example: comp* searches for all terms: computer, computing, computation, computers
Use NOT to exclude specific terms from the search:
- Example: alloy NOT polymer will tell the search to exclude any results that include the word "polymer"
