description Nowadays, the development of novel metallic materials for rock support have attracted research interests since they can significantly improve the deformation and energy absorption capacities of rock bolts. Although previous studies proved the importance and mechanical advantages of utilizing high-strength and high-toughness (HSHT) steels in rock support, there is no systematic analysis to reveal the essential energy absorption parameter and the guidelines for further development of metallic rock support materials. This paper analyzes the energy absorption characteristics of novel HSHT steels (negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) and twinning-induced plasticity (TWIP) steels) in comparison with conventional rock support materials. A physically based crystal plasticity (CP) model was set up and calibrated to study the effect of strain hardening rate (SHR). Meanwhile, the roles of underlying physical mechanisms, i.e. the dislocation density and twin volume fraction, were studied. The results show that the improvement of energy absorption density (EAD) is essential for further development of rock support materials, besides the increase of energy absorption rate (EAR) for previous development of conventional rock support materials. The increase of EAD requires increases of both strength and deformation capacity of materials. For HSHT steels, the decrease of SHR has a positive effect on the improvement of EAD. In addition, the increase of EAD is followed by the increase of twin volume fraction and the decrease of plastic Poisson's ratio which can promote deformation plasticity of materials. Meanwhile, the increase of EAR is correlated with the accumulation of dislocation density, which can increase the strength of materials. This paper provides the theoretical basis and guidelines for developing rock support materials in deep underground engineering and other related fields.
