The authors would like to express their appreciation to Res. Assist. Yildirim and to Prof. Agiralioglu for the interest shown in the discussed paper. Their comments about it offer a new opportunity to better explain the present work. The discussers appear to comment on two different problems in the original paper:
a) The discussers cannot reproduce the results of the first lateral in the paper, following the method proposed therein, as they show in their Table A, and
b) The discussers compare the results in the original paper to those obtained with two different step-by-step algorithms they propose (figs. A and B in the discussion).
In this closure the authors will try to provide clarification to these points.
