A response to the discussion paper on “Numerical flow simulation of fresh concrete with viscous granular material model and smoothed particle hydrodynamics”

The parameter L0 with a unit length (=1.0 m) was omitted in our paper, and the unit of loading speed s1 and the expression of parameter c7 were not shown, which result in that the dimensions of shear strain and shear strain rate shown in Eq.(16) were misinterpreted. In this response paper, we added the L0 in the expressions of parameters c6 and q, and explained the unit of s1, as well as gave the expression for the c7. The addition of L0 do not change the simulation results and conclusions of our paper.
