   <dc:description>This study presents the numerical evaluation of reinforced concrete beam which is repaired with&#xd;
polymer modified mortars. In this study, a series of reinforced concrete beams model were built for the&#xd;
analysis. All those beams model were made with rectangular cross section and equipped with&#xd;
longitudinal reinforcement both in tension and compression region and also transversal reinforcement&#xd;
(stirrups) in shear span extended to the entire length of the beam with uniform spacing. The repaired&#xd;
beams are modeled by Finite Element Method (FEM) into half geometry due to the symmetric&#xd;
geometry and loading conditions. The repaired beams were modeled by 2D elements in plane-stress&#xd;
condition including the interface model between the parent concrete and the repaired layer. Finite&#xd;
Element Method used to model simple support of the repaired beams with two loading points.&#xd;
Furthermore, parametric study is carried out to evaluate the effectiveness and the behavior of repaired&#xd;
beam with different concrete properties, repairing mortar properties and also with different thickness of&#xd;
mortars as well. Finally, to evaluate fatigue behavior of the repaired beams, numerical modeling is&#xd;
carried out to assess the behavior of the repaired beams when subjected to cyclic loading with&#xd;
applying number of cycles of loading. The numerical results showed that thick repairs which the&#xd;
longitudinal reinforcement included were found to be the most effective method for repairing when&#xd;
subjected both to static and fatigue loading. The result from this numerical modeling would become&#xd;
valuable reference for the experimental test which will be carried out in the future.</dc:description>
