In order to perform a Strict search, at the end of the desired term, put an exclamation mark (!).
Condition: In the result, only that is tolerated what has been entered (apart from empty spaces or a separator like a point for example). The Strict search tolerates stemming[2].
Only perform the Strict search as a variable search.
WS=Steel
for example, also finds "Stainless steel".
If you want to find "Steel" exclusively, use the Strict search.
WS=Steel!
On the contrary, if you only want to receive hits with "Stainless steel", meaning exclude hits with only "Steel", for example, then combine the Phrase search and Strict search.
WS="Stainless Steel"!
