Reviewer 3 Report
Very good work that deserves to be published. However it needs minor corrections before publication, as follows:
1. In line 120 to correct (Error! Reference source not found ) ?
2. According to which standard you have prepared your tensile samples?
3. Why the choice of gauge length between 100 to 350 mm?
4. In line 183 and 189 to correct (Error! Reference source not found ) ?
5. Figure 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9, add unit on x axis
6. For the representation of the RVE on Abaqus, did you use Python or work directly on the Abaqus software?
it is acceptable but it can improve it is if possible

Round 2
Reviewer 1 Report
Accept in present form.
Reviewer 2 Report
Dear Authors,
The paper has been significantly improved. However there is one issue that should be changed:
1. The stiffness tensor C_ij given in line 278 page 9 is a fourth order tensor and therefore it should be written as C_ijkl. The form C_ij represents a second order tensor.
Please consider to change the nottation.
Besides the above the Reviewer suggest to publish the paper.
Reviewer 3 Report
I appreciate your clarifications on these matters. I have carefully reviewed the revised version of the paper and have observed the changes you pointed out. In my opinion, the authors have addressed the issues in a coherent, logical, and persuasive manner. Moreover, I couldn't find any errors in these aspects. Thank you for providing the necessary context and for the thorough revisions.
