This decommissioned ERA site remains active temporarily to support our final migration steps to https://ualberta.scholaris.ca, ERA's new home. All new collections and items, including Spring 2025 theses, are at that site. For assistance, please contact erahelp@ualberta.ca.
Theses and Dissertations
This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

Fall 2013
With the ever increasing concerns about the structural adequacy of buildings and infrastructures, particularly in harsh environments with limited funding for ongoing maintenance, a significant need exists to develop highly durable and rapidly constructed structural systems. To this aim, recent...

Development of an Efficient Algorithmic Framework for Deterministic Patient Dose Calculation in MRI-guided Radiotherapy
DownloadSpring 2020
Accurate and efficient patient dose calculation for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-guided Radiotherapy is pursued based on a deterministic solution to the Linear Boltzmann Transport Equation (LBTE) with magnetic fields, as a technique which does not suffer from statistical uncertainty, and...

Parallel Field-Oriented Computation for Electromagnetic Transient Simulation of Power System Components
DownloadFall 2020
The finite element method (FEM) has been commonly employed to solve the partial differential equations in different physical domains including structural analysis, heat transfer, and electromagnetics due to its field-oriented nature, high accuracy, and capability to consider complex geometries...
