The interface crack of a slab track is a fracture of mixed-mode that experiences a complex loading–unloading–reloading process. A reasonable simulation of the interaction between the layers of slab tracks is the key to studying the interface crack. However, the existing models of interface disease of slab track have problems, such as the stress oscillation of the crack tip and self-repairing, which do not simulate the mixed mode of interface cracks accurately. Aiming at these shortcomings, we propose an improved cohesive zone model combined with an unloading/reloading relationship based on the original Park–Paulino–Roesler (PPR) model in this paper. It is shown that the improved model guaranteed the consistency of the cohesive constitutive model and described the mixed-mode fracture better. This conclusion is based on the assessment of work-of-separation and the simulation of the mixed-mode bending test. Through the test of loading, unloading, and reloading, we observed that the improved unloading/reloading relationship effectively eliminated the issue of self-repairing and preserved all essential features. The proposed model provides a tool for the study of interface cracking mechanism of ballastless tracks and theoretical guidance for the monitoring, maintenance, and repair of layer defects, such as interfacial cracks and slab arches.

This paper evaluated mixed mode I/II fracture toughness of fiber-reinforced concrete using cracked semi-circular bend (SCB) specimens subjected to three-point bending test. Additionally, a comparison was made between the experimental results and the estimations made by different theoretical criteria. Natural and synthetic fibers at various concentrations were used in this study. After producing cracks in SCB specimens at different inclination angles to induce different mixed mode loading conditions (from pure mode I to II), the fracture toughness of SCB specimens was determined. Furthermore, the compressive, splitting tensile, and flexural strength of natural and synthetic fiber-reinforced concrete were measured after 7 and 28 days of curing. While there is an increase in the aforementioned strengths with fiber content increase, 0.3% was found to be the optimum percentage regarding fracture toughness for both fibers. Also, the comparison between the experimental and theoretical results showed that generalized maximum tangential stress criterion estimated the experimental data satisfactorily.

Multi-parameter fracture mechanics concept has been applied to investigate crack behavior under mixed-mode loading, particularly in a semi-circular bending disc. The so-called Williams’ series expansion is used for the crack-tip stress field approximation. It has been shown that application of the generalized fracture mechanics concept can be crucial for materials with specific fracture behavior, such as elastic-plastic or quasi-brittle one, when fracture occurs not only in the very vicinity of the crack tip, but also in a more distant surrounding. Then, considering the higher-order terms of the Williams’ expansion in fracture criteria can be helpful. The attention is devoted to the analysis of the influence of various distances between the supports during the three-point bending test on the results of the further crack propagation direction.
