Following publication of the original article Chen et al. (2019), the authors indentified an error in the citations. They have omitted to cite the work of Farooq et al. (2017).

The first sentence of subsection 4.3 should read as follows: “The relationship between the ratio of plastic strain εp,Ni to maximum strain εmax,Ni and the logarithm of loading cycle logNi is formulated on the basis of experimental data in the cyclic loading tests at different stress levels, as expressed in Eq. (6), adapted from Farooq et al. (2017).”

In addition, the first sentence of the fourth paragraph of subsection 4.4 should read as “Fig. 15 presents the flow chart to evaluate the fracture parameters and predict fatigue life, which is based on the methods proposed by Farooq et al. (2017).”

The authors apologize to Farooq et al. and to readers for this omission.
