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.

Axial Performance of Self-tapping Screws in Mass Timber Products Under Moisture Content Variation
DownloadFall 2022
Self-tapping screws (STS) are widely used in wood-to-wood and wood-to-steel connections in timber structures. The premature failure of STS during the construction phase has been recently reported by structural engineers and contractors of several mass timber projects in North America due to the...

Bayesian Nonlinear Finite Element Model Updating of Bridge Columns considering Bond-slip and Rebar Buckling using Experimental and Simulated Data
DownloadSpring 2021
Reinforced concrete (RC) bridges are key elements in modern transportation system. Therefore, the serviceability and safety of such structures after earthquakes have become an area of great interest. Developing an accurate FE model that is capable of representing the important mechanics of RC...

Spring 2022
This study, which adopts the physical modelling technique to investigate caprock deformation behaviour, intends to elucidate the impact of steam chamber expansion rate on caprock integrity. This study develops a synthetic material to replicate the behaviour of Clearwater Formation shale for the...

Fall 2013
Batch reaction tests were conducted on Lea Park shale from Pembina Cardium Field in Alberta to investigate geochemical alterations induced by exposing brine/CO2 mixtures at designed pressure and temperature. Dissolution of illite and growth of cluster-coating structures were observed on rock...

Behaviour and Design of Unstiffened Wide-Flange Members Subjected to Torsional Moment through One Flange
DownloadSpring 2016
Behaviour of the unstiffened wide flanged member is not characterized by the available literature or current design standards. Torsional moment applied on the one flange unstiffened member causes the member to undergo local distortions. Conventionally, to avoid these local distortions stiffeners...
