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.

Support Stiffness and Two-span Continuity Effects on Static Deflection and Fundamental Natural Frequency of Mass Timber Floors
DownloadSpring 2023
Static deflection at mid-span under a concentrated load and fundamental natural frequency are two important vibration serviceability design parameters for mass timber panel (MTP) floor systems. Current design procedures for the two parameters tend to be conservative and over-simplified. To...

Spring 2016
Trenchless technology has brought a new era in pipeline installation, overtaking the customary open cut method. Several new trenchless installation techniques are now practicable, among which Guided Boring Method (GBM), pipe jacking and microtunnelling are most remarkable. All these methods are...

Fall 2024
Numerical simulation is extensively used in advanced analysis of structures under seismic loading. Even though computational power and solution algorithms have advanced over the years, response evaluation of complex structures using numerical methods can still be challenging due to high...
