Reply to comment on “New understanding of the effect of hydrostatic pressure on the corrosion of Ni-Cr-Mo-V high strength steel”

This paper is a response to the comments by Y.G. Pronina on our article entitled “New understanding of the effect of hydrostatic pressure on the corrosion of Ni-Cr-Mo-V high strength steel”. It offers us an opportunity to exchange science matters on material corrosion in deep sea environment from the point of view of solid mechanics and electrochemical corrosion. Corrosion process and corrosion model of the Ni-Cr-Mo-V high strength steel under the effect of hydrostatic pressure are further clarified.
