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.

Effects of Triaxial Stress and Strain on Multiphase Flow in 3D-Printed Fractured Reservoir Rock Analogues
DownloadFall 2024
The oil and gas industry, fundamental to the global energy economy, faces an ever-increasing quest for new reserves to meet growing demand. Hydrocarbon reservoirs, dynamic systems by nature, undergo significant changes throughout their lifecycle, particularly due to deformation from effective...

Energy Dissipater for Concentrically Braced Frames: Brace Member with Combined Properties of Metallic Structural Fuse and Friction Damper
DownloadSpring 2014
The main focus of this research is to develop and evaluate a high performance seismic energy dissipater for a concentrically braced frame that can be easily fabricated using common steel grades by a typical steel fabricator. Developmental stage of the research has concluded that brace member with...
