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 2023
Bitumen is extracted either using surface mining or in situ processes, such as Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD), that could produce large quantities of oil sands process water (OSPW) and SAGD produced water. SAGD produced water is generally characterized by a slightly basic pH (7-8), high...

Strands and wire ropes are widely used in many civil and mining engineering applications, such as encountered in cable stays for bridges, suspension bridge elements, mooring structures, cranes, ropes for shovels, draglines, and for elevators and mine shaft cages and skips. These ropes are broadly...

Feasibility Studies on Usage of Agro-Forestry-Based Ash as a Cement Replacement in Concrete
DownloadSpring 2015
This study is part of a joint Canada-India research program to effect sustainable construction. Alberta generates a significant amount of waste from agricultural- and forest-based industries. Similarly, India has lots of sugar cane bagasse waste. Researchers in both countries want to use these...

Fall 2024
Frazil ice particles and flocs can adhere to underwater structures causing blockage to water intakes and large accumulation of frazil ice in the channel may cause flooding and property damage. After frazil floc rises to the water surface the resulting surface ice profoundly impacts river...
