In this research, the fluid-structure interaction in a recently developed membrane pump is analysed. The governing equations for the laminar flow and for the deformation of the membrane are solved with two separate codes, which are coupled with the quasi-Newton technique with an approximation for the inverse of the Jacobian from a least-squares model. After the description of the model and the solution techniques, a detailed analysis of the flow field, the deformation of the structure and the stress in the membrane is presented. An energetic analysis of the pump is performed, and the pump's efficiency is calculated
