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.

Voxel-Based Iterative Registration Method using Phase Correlations for Three-Dimensional Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Acquired Images
DownloadFall 2016
In orthodontics superimposition is an important technique allowing for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. Lower radiation, three-dimensional, cone-beam computed tomography allows for acquisition of three-dimensional patient scans. New superimposition methods are used compared to the...

Fall 2011
Various pressures of compressed air were introduced into the flame spraying torch and the protective coatings of nanostructured and conventional titania (TiO2) were deposited on low carbon steel substrates. Performance of the coatings was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), hardness...

Fall 2009
Rubber-toughened polymers have extensive applications due to excellent mechanical performances. However, the toughening mechanisms are not completely understood, as current study approaches are too localized for quantitative analysis and deviation from mechanical testing has rarely been taken...

Spring 2018
Superhydrophobic interfaces, due to their unique water repellent and self-cleaning properties, are attracting a wide-spread interest for implementation in a variety of applications, including self-assembly based fabrication methods, nano/microfluidics, and solar energy harvesting. To facilitate...

Spring 2013
This thesis is concerned with the effect of mechanical wear on superhydrophobic surfaces (SHS). This work, for the first time, systematically details the simultaneous surface topography and wetting behavior changes upon abrasion of SHS. The process of physical abrasion was also simulated on the...
