How to search in Hydraulic Engineering Repository:
You may search via typing words in the search box. Words in this box are considered as conneted via "OR". For exact phrases use quotes, e.g. "zee- en meerdijken". The wildcard is *, e.g. meerdijk*. A wildcard with a term with a space does not work "zeeen meerdijk"* does not work. "meerdijk"* works.
In order to limit the search field, a search class can be added in the search box. Search classes can be: creator (= author), contributor, subject (=keyword), publisher For example classification:TPG* gives all hits with classification starting with TPG. Important: note that there is no blank betweeen : and the class (so classification: TPG* does not work). It also seems that this is case-sensitive (classification:tpg* does not work).
In case the search term consist of spaces and/or symbols, add quotes. So creator:Verhagen gives publication of various person with family name Verhagen, When you search a specific author, add initials and use quotes: creator:"Verhagen, H.J." In this case creator:Verhagen* and creator:"Verhage"* does not work, but creator:"Verhagen"* works

The query line should look like:
http://repository.tudelft.nl/search/hydro/?q=%22acoustic+emission%22&classification=TPN200150&publisher=&type=&year=1980-1982
or
http://repository.tudelft.nl/search/hydro/?q=classification%3ATPG*&publisher=Deltares
(note that %3A is : and %22 is ")
"Type" is always "report" in Hydraulic Enginerring Repository, so it can be left blank.
