Creep characteristics analysis of oil shale and its application

to study oil shale creep properties, we use rock SJ-1B three-axis creep instrument on oil shale to carry three axis creep test. Through test results, the creep of oil shale is nonlinear, and in accelerating creep stage oil shale injury increased dramatically. Using Burgers creep model introduced damage variable to analyse the oil shale surrounding stress and displacement field and Systematically analyse the creep properties under various support intensity. So it has important theoretical significance and value for the oil shale resource development and roadway stability control.
