The study aimed at describing the experimental and theoretical relationships between t he force and deformation curves as well as the deformation energy of bulk oil palm kernels under compression loading. V essel diameters of 60, 80 and 100 mm with initial pressing heights of the bulk kernels measured at 40, 60 and 80 mm were examined by appl ying a maximum compressive force of 200 kN and a speed of 5 mm min - 1 . For the theoretical description of the force and deformation curves, the tangent curve mathematical model was applied using the MathCAD 14 software where the force coefficient of mechani cal behaviour, A (kN), the deformation coefficient of mechanical behaviour, B (mm - 1 ) and the fitting curve function exponent, n ( - ) were determined respectively. The determined coefficients in addition to the maximum deformation values obtained from the co mpression test were used for the estimation of the theoretical or analytical deformation energy. The determined regression models expressing the deformation, numerical energy and theoretical energy as well as the tangent model coefficients A and B dependen t on the vessel diameter and pressing height were statistically significant ( P < 0.05) or ( F - ratio > F - critical) . Improving the mechanical pressing of oil extraction for both domestic and industrial applications still remain a concer n of researchers and en gineers.
