Debarking generally involves the use of industrial machinery into which the log or stake is placed. [3] These machines can be either stationary or portable. Generally they are powered by hydraulic motors but can also be driven by a power take-off. The log or stake is then pressed against blades or knives which remove the bark while the log is ...
A hydraulic debarker is a machine removing bark from wooden logs by the use of water under a pressure of 700 kilopascals (100 pounds per square inch) or greater. [1] Hydraulic debarking can reduce soil and rock content of bark, but may increase the water content.
Devocalization (also known as ventriculocordectomy or vocal cordectomy; when performed on a dog debarking or bark softening; when performed on a cat demeowing or meow softening) is a surgical procedure [1] where tissue is removed from the vocal cords.

Military debarking procedures, even in non-combat zones, can be quite complex. [6] [7] In addition to routine operations, debarking can be conducted under fire as part of amphibious assaults, such as that of the Normandy landings during World War II. In such cases, it is vital that cargo be loaded so it can be unloaded in the order needed ...
Unanchored homes are swept away, and homes with poor anchoring may collapse entirely. Trains and train cars are all overturned. Small vehicles and similarly sized objects are lifted off the ground and tossed as projectiles. Wooded areas suffer an almost total loss of vegetation and some tree debarking may occur.
