Bibliography Filter

The Space Architecture Bibliography page contains thousands of entries.  Without a filter, it displays all of them.  You can use the filter to reduce the display to a subset of entries that match a pattern.

Examples

Rules

• “Words” are strings of contiguous letters and digits with no white space, punctuation, or other characters.
• Letters are insensitive to case or diacritical marks.
• Digits must match exactly.
• Pattern words must match whole item words (not word fragments).
• Adjacent pattern words must match adjacent item words.  Adjacent words comprise a phrase.  Phrases do not need to be quoted.  Quotes are ignored.
• The asterisk * is a wildcard that matches any substring of zero or more letters or digits.  It may appear anywhere in a pattern word.  Use it to match plurals and other derivatives of the root word.
• The pipe | signifies an “or” between the subpatterns on its left and right.  The pattern matches if either subpattern matches.  Use it to match synonyms.
• The ampersand & signifies an “and” between the subpatterns on its left and right.  The pattern matches if both subpatterns match parts of the item.  Use it between independent filter words that don’t necessarily comprise a phrase.
• The pipe | has higher precedence than the ampersand &.
• All other characters are equivalent to blanks.
• All strings of contiguous blanks are equivalent to a single blank.
