      How cities grow is set to change. In the Greater Toronto Area, both Ontario’s Greenbelt Plan and Growth Plan for the Golden Greater Horseshoe are set to have a significant impact on how and where urban growth will occur ...
    • The Intensity of the Insight Experience in Problem Solving: Structural and Dynamic Properties 

      Derbentseva, Natalia (University of Waterloo, 2007-01-19)
      Field theory of Lewin was used to analyze the experience of insight problem solving. It was proposed that insight is characterized by the intensity of the experience at the moment of solution. It was argued that the intensity ...
    • Intent Classification during Human-Robot Contact 

      Fisher, Wesley (University of Waterloo, 2020-10-15)
      Robots are used in many areas of industry and automation. Currently, human safety is ensured through physical separation and safeguards. However, there is increasing interest in allowing robots and humans to work in close ...
    • The Intentional Base-on-ball Phenomenon in Baseball: A Statistical Analysis and Strategic Recommendations 

      Kappy, Andrew (University of Waterloo, 2005)
      The game of baseball is amenable to a variety of strategies that affect short-term outcomes. This paper employs regression analysis, simulation, and cognitive analysis of mental biases to analyze the strategic scenario ...
    • Intentionality as Methodology 

      Hochstein, Eric (University of Waterloo, 2012-01-25)
      In this dissertation, I examine the role that intentional descriptions play in our scientific study of the mind. Behavioural scientists often use intentional language in their characterization of cognitive systems, making ...
    • Inter-item associations and memory for order 

      Jonker, Tanya R. (University of Waterloo, 2015-08-26)

    • Interaction Between Forming and the Crash Response of Aluminium Alloy S-Rails 

      Oliveira, Dino (University of Waterloo, 2007-07-04)
      One of the principal energy absorbing structural components that influences the crashworthiness of a vehicle is the side-rail, which is also commonly referred to as an s-rail due to its shape that is reminiscent of an “s”. ...
    • The interaction between retrieval and encoding processes in memory 

      Danckert, Stacey (University of Waterloo, 2011-09-30)
