Vesicles and red blood cells in shear flow.

We describe the similarities and the specificities of the behaviour of individual soft particles, namely, drops, lipid vesicles and red blood cells subjected to a shear flow. We highlight that their motion depends in a non-trivial way on the particle mechanical properties. We detail the effect of the presence of a wall with or without wall-particle attractive interaction from a biological perspective.
