Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The authors present and discuss their work on NVH analysis and optimization of construction hoist drive systems. The topic is within the scope of Applied Sciences. The work is systematic, complete, and well-organized. The results are convincing. Some minute details need to be adjusted.

Minor comments:

1)The derivation of formulas is too detailed, and the introduction of the underlying theory is too detailed, so please simplify it appropriately.

2)The font formatting of the text on page 27 is not uniform, please revise.

3)Section 3.4 Helical Gear Load Distribution Analysis Why only 40% and 100% conditions were used should be explained.

Reviewer 2 Report

1, The algorithm implemented in the study for predicting noise should be clearly detailed in a workflow diagram.

2, Figures should be improved, text size on figure should be same as in-text.

3, Authors should provide validation of the obtained results.

The grammar appears satisfactory.

Reviewer 3 Report

The manuscript deals with the improving of noisee, vibration and harshness  (NVH) level for the drive system of the construction hoist. The authors fould a gap in this domain, consisting in the expensive way used to evaluate the NVH performance. The research is a consistent one and implies a lot of effort using different sofware and simulation. The results seems to be important. I suggest to give some data concerning the previous research in the field to a better comparison of the values. Also I think that the first chapter should not mention the history but more interesting results obtained by other researchers. The mathematical part should not be so consistent and the focus on the obtained results compared with them could reveal the novelty of the research. In my opinion the authors can improve the presentation of their work in this manuscript. Please make sure that all abbreviations are explained, since the abstract.
