Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

I suggest that this manuscript needs to undergo major revisions to improve its readability and academic value. The following issues need to be addressed.

(1) Please specify the application field of the power transmission system studied in the manuscript. It can help readers understand why titanium alloy is chosen as the material for the shaft and other issues.

(2) Most of the equations presented in the manuscript do not need to be listed. These equations basically do not require further derivation and are all mature formulas that have been applied. Please simplify the number of equations.

(3) The letter expression of some physical quantities is not in compliance with regulations. For example, the authors used F1 and F2 to represent the face widths of the gear, however, F is usually used to express the force. In this manuscript, the authors used W to represent force.

(4) In the section 4, please refine the introduction of various algorithms.

(5) It is suggested to provide a brief introduction to the strength and deformation of gears and shafts under working conditions in the manuscript.

(6)The content of the manuscript lacks academic nature and reads like an analysis report.The authors should provide sufficient theoretical explanations and support for the results.
