Failure-Mode Shift of Metal/Composite L-Joint with Grooved Structure under Compressive Load
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The author has discussed about failure mode of metal-composite joint under compressive load.
Thsi manuscript can be classified as an well-made research paper, and also contains high-degree of the practical scientific contribution in this research fields, especially damage & failure prediction diagram for joint which the athuor has proposed.

Reviewer 2 Report
In this paper, failure analysis of L-shape metal/composite is studied. The structure is under the compressive load. This paper has a good topic but need to below revisions:
1-The failure analysis is studied but the damage factor for the structure has not been reported. This factor using a theory such as Hook-Brown or other models should be added to the revised paper.
2-The boundary conditions of L-shape structure should be clarified and its effect should be studied on the results.
3-The introduction section has not a good relation between sub-sections. hence, should be modified.
4-The interaction of metal and composite is essential to study.
5-From the physical side, the results need to modification.
6-Some abbriviations should be defined such as VARI and etc
