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.

Achieving carbon-neutral cement production by 2050 through the adoption of decarbonization technologies
DownloadSpring 2024
Global warming caused by anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is leading to measurable environmental impacts that threaten to disrupt societies globally. Food and water security, human health, and economies are expected to be adversely affected. Therefore, as the world strives to reduce...

Spring 2011
Active flow control of a precessing jet is the focus of this work. A round jet confined by a round cavity exhibits a self-excited rotational motion, precession, for a specific range of cavity lengths. Active flow control of this unstable flow provides the ability to control near-field mixing of...

Additive Manufacturing and Other Techniques for Fabrication of Foams and Electrically Conductive Polymer Composites
DownloadSpring 2023
In this thesis, two aspects of advanced uses for additive manufacturing and microfabrication are investigated: stretchable electronics and polymer foams. These topics were initially part of an extended project effort to develop new capabilities in deformable, high-frequency antennas and the...

Additive Manufacturing of Shape Memory Polymers: Effects of Print Orientation and Infill Percentage on Mechanical and Shape Memory Recovery Properties
DownloadFall 2017
Material Extrusion Additive Manufacturing (MEAM), also known as Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), is a manufacturing technique in which three-dimensional objects are built. These objects are built by repeatedly extruding thin layers of molten materials through a nozzle in different paths and...
