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.

Secondary Interaction of Fracturing Fluid and Shale Plays: A Reservoir Geomechanics Approach
DownloadSpring 2022
During hydraulic fracturing in unconventional tight formations a high percentage of the injected fluid may remain in the formation and only a small portion of the fracturing fluid is typically recovered. Although spontaneous imbibition is mainly introduced as the main dominating mechanism, a...

Spring 2021
Alberta’s oil sands deposits are the third-largest proven crude oil reserve in the world. However, only 20% of the bitumen in Alberta’s oil sands are shallow enough to be recoverable by surface mining techniques; the remaining 80% can only be extracted using in-situ techniques that involve the...

Fall 2024
Flow through an individual rock fracture is of fundamental importance in both experimental and numerical studies aimed at describing the hydraulic behavior of fracture networks or rock masses. A single fracture can exert dominance over fluid pathways, and the results obtained from individual...
