Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

  • Abstract, Keywords and Introductions it is wriitten "multi-level", but in praktice (3 materials analisis in paper) in the paper we have two-lewels blcks. So it is incorected
  • the introductions are very pure. It is necessery to put also others papers in this subject
  • Figure 1 is not clear. Plaese improved it
  • Figure 2 is not necessery - please cut it
  • Figure 3 is not intersting. We may put in this place only the area of fracture
  • Table 2 loading amltude 1100 MPa and life time )??!!. I think that Authors write about static - it is 1/2 cycle!!
  • p.8. It is written σ1 and σ2 - that are amplitude. Please write it
  • l.204 - n1 plase write as index 1
  • References are written uncorected. Please write Surname N. in all references as in [1, 3, 4]. Others are not corrected

Response to Reviewer 1 Comments

Point 1:Abstract, Keywords and Introductions it is wriitten "multi-level", but in praktice (3 materials analisis in paper) in the paper we have two-lewels blcks. So it is incorected.

Response 1: Your opinion is correct. In the experiment, we carried out two-stage loading and then extended it to multi-stage loading. The manuscript has been revised in accordance with your comments.

Point 2: The introductions are very pure. It is necessery to put also others papers in this subject

Response 2: Thank you for your helpful comment,the introduction has been revised based on your comment. The added content is from line 56 to line64.

Point 3:Figure 1 is not clear. Plaese improved it 

Response 3:The resolution of Figure 1 has been improved based on your comment.

Point 4:Figure 2 is not necessery - please cut it

Response 4:According to your comment, Figure 2 has been deleted.

Point 5:Figure 3 is not intersting. We may put in this place only the area of fracture

Response 5:Thank you for your valuable comment,a picture of the fracture zone has been added to Figure 3.

Point 6:Table 2 loading amltude 1100 MPa and life time )??!!. I think that Authors write about static - it is 1/2 cycle!!

Response 6:Your opinion is correct. The manuscript has been revised in accordance with your comment.

Point 7:p.8. It is written σ1 and σ2 - that are amplitude. Please write it

 Response 7:They have been defined in the nomenclature.(l.30,l.31)

Point 8:l.204 - n1 plase write as index 1

Response 8:It has been modified in the manuscript according to your comment.

 Point 9:References are written uncorected. Please write Surname N.in all references as in [1, 3, 4]. Others are not corrected

Response 9:Thank you for your helpful comment, the references have been revised in the manuscript as per your request.

Reviewer 2 Report

The article presents an interesting contribution of the nonlinear cumulative damage model considering the influence of load sequence with experimental verification.  Author have successfully demonstrated the fatigue test data with the proposed model.

Authors should be revised as below:

1) Fig. 1 is not acceptable 

2) Fig. 10, 11,12,13,14,15 are not acceptable resolution for title of axis 

3) There are a lot of errata in manuscript  Authors should be modified whole words.

4) Authors use a large number of abbreviation in the paper, It should be added nomenclature chapter before introduction

Response to Reviewer 2 Comments

 

Point 1:Fig. 1 is not acceptable 

Response 1: Thank you for your valuable comment, the resolution of Figure 1 has been improved in the manuscript.

Point 2:  Fig. 10, 11,12,13,14,15 are not acceptable resolution for title of axis 

Response 2: Thank you for your valuable comment, the resolution has been improved.

Point 3:There are a lot of errata in manuscript  Authors should be modified whole words.

Response 3:Thank you for your helpful comment,punctuation in the manuscript has been checked and revised.

Point 4:Authors use a large number of abbreviation in the paper, It should be added nomenclature chapter before introduction

Response 4:Thank you for your valuable comment, the nomenclature chapter has been added.

Round 2

Reviewer 1 Report

  1. Nomenclatures must be written in alfabetic order
  2. Fig. 4. The minimum value on axis is 0. But log 0.5 = -0.301. It should be used logarithmic scal but not logarytmic value. 0 is not minimum!!
  3. The introduction is poor still. Putting only paper [11] is to small. Please read same others paper and wroite same sentences in the text. Please see papers of exapmle of: Taheri, Vincent, Yuan, Li, Huang, Kurek, Lagoda, Aeran, Biezma, Benkabouche, Guechichi, Anes,

Point 1:Nomenclatures must be written in alfabetic order

Response 1: Thank you for your helpful comment,the nomenclatures has been revised.

Point 2: Fig. 4. The minimum value on axis is 0. But log 0.5 = -0.301. It should be used logarithmic scal but not logarytmic value. 0 is not minimum!!

 

Response 2: Thank you for your valuable comment. It is my fault. I forgot to update Figure 4. after making changes based on your comments in the previous version. Figure 4 has now been updated based on your suggestions.

Point 3:The introduction is poor still. Putting only paper [11] is to small. Please read same others paper and wroite same sentences in the text. Please see papers of exapmle of: Taheri, Vincent, Yuan, Li, Huang, Kurek, Lagoda, Aeran, Biezma, Benkabouche, Guechichi, Anes,

Response 3:Thank you for your valuable comment.Based on your suggestions, I have studied the articles of several authors you provided. The introduction has been revised in my manuscript.
