[EP-tech] Simple search question - not urgent


CAUTION: This e-mail originated outside the University of Southampton.
Hi everyone,

I know we've all got busy lives, but if anyone has time to explain something to me at some point that would be brilliant.

Using the simple search for the following title:

An investigation into the use of slip casting of 316L stainless steel as a method of forming injection moulding tools

Returns no results. Searching for "An Investigation" returns a number of results, two titles starting with "an investigation", but neither of them are what I'm looking for. If I search for "stainless" I get no results, along with "stainles" and "stainless steel" behaving the same. If I search for "316L" I get the result I want (amongst some others):

https://livrepository.liverpool.ac.uk/cgi/search/simple?q=316L&_action_search=Search

It isn't super important, or in any way urgent, but can anyone suggest why? If it's "just how it is" that is fine, but I am obviously wondering if there is something not working as it should. If I use the advanced search using the full title in the title field it returns exactly what I expect (presumably because this search specifically looks for that string in that field). All searches done without quotes.

Thanks,
James
