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.

Characterizing and Modeling Elastic Stiffness Variation of Opalinus Clay Based on Laboratory and In-situ Measurements
DownloadFall 2022
Opalinus Clay is the designated host rock for future radioactive waste disposal in Switzerland. Characterizing the elastic stiffness of Opalinus Clay and its variation is essential in the ground deformation prediction and geophysical survey during the construction and operation of disposal...

Quantifying Uncertainty for In-situ Stress Estimates using Reservoir Geomechanical Pressuremeter
DownloadFall 2024
Over the last two decades, several high-profile caprock performance issues, such as surface steam and fluid releases, have highlighted the importance of caprock integrity assessments and the critical role that robust determination of the initial in-situ stress tensor plays in these assessments....
