Hi,

I've done a quasi-static simulation in my studying, I used aluminum alloy 6,000 series which is not sensitive to the strain rate.

I speed up the load rate until the ratio of kinetic energy to internal energy is less than 5% to maintain the quasi-static condition.

now, I've received the below comment from a referee of the journal I sent my paper to.

the referee said:
The authors mentioned that the material is strain rate insensitive. The discussion of the internal and kinetic energy can be suppressed given the material selected.

I don't understand the exact point of his/her comment, what should i do?
 
Given what you say in the post and the quote you provided, my guess as to the meaning of the quote is:

The discussion in your paper about internal and kinetic energy should be removed (suppressed) because it is not relevant to the material you used for testing.
