Abstract: This paper aims to explore the adaptability of the SPH-FEM coupling method in simulating gear and rack meshing impacts. Taking the gears and racks of a pumping unit as the research object, the adaptive SPH-FEM coupling method is used to simulate gear and rack meshing impacts. This provides a new approach for studying the impact of gear mechanisms that may involve structural damage. The propagation law of the impact stress is obtained, which reveals the microscopic mechanism of formation of the tooth-face impact wear and deduces that the metal debris generated in the meshing impact process is the main reason for the appearance of tooth surface defects. The results show that the peak residual stresses in section Ⅰ and section Ⅱ are 6.694×10² MPa and 2.935×10² MPa, respectively, after impacting for 0.6 ms, and the error of micro-experiment verification is very small, which indicates that the method is effective.
