I. Overview of EI periodical retrieval
EI periodical retrieval is an advanced periodical retrieval tool in the field of engineering technology developed by American Institute of Engineering Information. It covers all aspects of engineering technology, including mechanical engineering, electronic engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, material science, computer science and so on. EI periodical retrieval updates hundreds of thousands of research papers every year, including some latest research achievements and cutting-edge technologies. Therefore, the use of EI periodical retrieval can help practitioners quickly understand the latest research progress and master the latest technical trends.
Second, the operation steps of EI periodical retrieval
1. Open the EI periodical retrieval website.
First of all, you need to open the official website of EI periodical retrieval. The official website of EI periodical retrieval is www.engineeringvillage.com. On the homepage of the website, you can see the search box of EI periodicals and some latest research results.
2. Conduct keyword search
Enter keywords in the search box, and then click the search button to search for keywords. EI periodical retrieval supports various retrieval methods, including full-text retrieval, author retrieval, periodical retrieval and conference retrieval. Among them, full-text retrieval is the most commonly used retrieval method, which can be searched in the title, abstract, text and other parts of the article according to keywords.
3. Advanced search
If you need to retrieve the research results in a certain field more accurately, you can choose advanced retrieval. Advanced retrieval can be based on the author, journal, publication time, keywords and other dimensions, which can help us quickly find the research results that meet the requirements.
Step 4 check the search results
After retrieval, EI periodical retrieval will return a series of satisfactory retrieval results. We can sort the search results according to the dimensions of relevance, publication time and journal impact factors, so as to find the most qualified research results faster. At the same time, EI periodical retrieval also provides detailed information such as abstracts, keywords, author information and periodical information, which is convenient for us to further understand the article.
5. Download the research results
If you need to obtain the full text of a research achievement, you can directly retrieve and download it from EI journals. EI periodical retrieval supports full-text download in PDF format, which can be conveniently saved to the local computer and viewed at any time.
Third, matters needing attention
1. Selection of keywords
When searching for keywords, we need to choose the right keywords. The choice of keywords should be as close as possible to the field we need to know, and at the same time, it should be as concise as possible to avoid too complicated terms and abbreviations.
2. Screening of search results
There may be many search results returned by EI periodical retrieval, so we need to filter them according to our own needs. In the process of screening, we can sort the articles according to their relevance, publication time, journal impact factors and other dimensions, so as to find the most qualified research results faster.
3. Evaluation of research results
After obtaining the research results, we need to evaluate them. The contents of the evaluation include the quality of the article, the feasibility of the research method and the reliability of the research results. Only after full evaluation can we make better use of these research results.
