✦ Synopsis


Most of the medium-and high-grade specimens of oil shale structurally failed during heating under a load above 0.14.5 MPa in the temperature range 65S770 K, while the low-grade specimens did not fail up to a load of 4.83 MPa. Increasing the compressive load decreased the temperature at which structural failure occurs. The load above which failure occurred was lower for higher-grade samples.
