Finds documents with exactly this word group, in exactly this word order and spelling (e.g. "employer branding").
Finds documents with both search terms (e.g. sales AND bonus).
Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).
Finds documents with the search term in word versions or composites. The asterisk * marks whether you wish them BEFORE, BEHIND, or BEFORE and BEHIND the search term (e.g. lightweight*, *lightweight, *lightweight*).
Finds documents with the search term in different spellings. "?" allows only one character (e.g. organi?ation).
Special characters are understood as AND (e.g. Miller Bros. & Sons).

Excerpt

The Autonomous Process Unit (VTE), a joint project by Krone and Lemken, is designed to address the labor shortage in agriculture by automating various arable farming and grassland processes. The VTE consists of an autonomous pulling unit and smart implements equipped with sensors, enabling real-time data exchange and process optimization. The pulling unit features a diesel-electric drivetrain, 360° environment perception using lidar and cameras, and precise track guidance using a geofence system. Implements are intelligently integrated with the VTE, allowing for automated work processes and predictive maintenance. The article highlights specific applications of the VTE in soil cultivation, mechanical weed control, and grassland processes, demonstrating its potential to revolutionize autonomous farming. The VTE's advanced features and intelligent integration of implements make it a standout solution for the future of agriculture.
