Abstract
The effect of the tip path overlap on debarking quality of unfrozen and frozen black spruce logs was studied. The power, energy consumption, and torque were also measured for both temperature conditions. The experiment consisted of debarking logs using three overlaps (8, 27, and 43%) at two temperatures (−12°C and +20°C). Debarking quality was evaluated by the proportion of bark remaining on log surfaces and by the amount of wood in bark residues. Log characteristics (dimensions, eccentricity, and knot features), bark/wood shear strength (BWSS), moisture content, and basic densities of sapwood, inner, and outer barks were measured and treated as covariates. Experiments revealed that tip path overlap affects debarking quality for both temperature conditions: the amount of bark remaining on log surfaces decreased, and the proportion of wood in bark residues increased as tip path overlap increased. In addition, the effects of bark/wood shear strength, the proportion of knot area and sapwood, inner and outer barks densities, and moisture content on debarking quality criteria were analyzed. The mean power, energy consumption, and torque increased as the tip path overlap increased. These parameters were also positively affected by the log diameter and BWSS for frozen logs. The results give helpful information to improve debarking quality within the studied range of overlaps, log characteristics, and debarking parameters with efficient energy use.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
