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.

Spring 2014
This thesis documents the research undertaken to develop and assess modeling and monitoring tools to improve the water quality management in the Athabasca River, Alberta. The Upper Athabasca River (UAR) has experienced dissolved oxygen (DO) sags, which may affect the aquatic ecosystem. A water...

Fall 2023
Final estimates at the grade-control (GC) stage of mining are built to maximize the correct classificationof mineable blocks. The costs include drilling, mining, and processing. When consideringdedicated GC drilling, Drill-hole spacing (DHS) optimization for profit balances the cost of...

Spring 2021
Different quantities of information are available at various stages of the development of a mining project. Consequential decisions are made given the data available at the time. Geological uncertainty due to sparse data presents economic risks. The collection of additional information reduces...

Fall 2012
The laboratory continuous air dense medium fluidised bed separator was tested on the high ash coal of Genesee Mine and has proven to be an effective method for coal dry cleaning. The results show that we can get a yield of 80% with an ash content of 10%, which is a good achievement from the feed...

Dual-Level Resource-Constrained Multi-Project Scheduling Framework for Prefabrication in Construction
DownloadFall 2018
Construction prefabrication projects, where engineered systems or components of large size and heavy weight are fabricated with limited workplace and storage areas, typically are executed in a multi-project environment. So, frequent inter-project resource transfers are not feasible and should be...

Fall 2011
The behavior of steel plate shear walls under the effects of lateral loads depends on the stiffness of the surrounding frame members. Previous research has quantified the minimum required stiffness of columns in the middle stories of steel plate shear wall systems. As the columns of the steel...
