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.

With the increasing application of renewable energy systems, many Distributed Generation (DG) systems have been connected to power systems. Power electronic converters are usually used as effective interfaces of DG unit. These interfaces convert either DC or non-grid AC voltages of DGs to the...

Today, conventional power systems are evolving into modern smart grids, where interconnected microgrids may dominate the distribution system with high penetration of renewable energies and storage elements (SEs). The hybrid AC/DC systems with DC and AC sources/loads are considered to be the most...

Suppose $X$ is a vector lattice and there is a notion of convergence $x{\alpha} \xrightarrow{\sigma} x$ in $X$. Then we can speak of an ``unbounded" version of this convergence by saying that $x{\alpha} \xrightarrow{u\sigma} x$ if $\lvert x\alpha-x\rvert \wedge u\xrightarrow{\sigma} 0$ for every...

Atkin and Swinnerton-Dyer conjectured a simple characterization of those Fuchsian groups whose modular forms have integral Fourier coefficient. It has a natural and far-reaching generalization, which we will call the vASD conjecture, to vector-valued modular forms. We confirm vASD conjecture for...
