      abstract     = {The dynamics of fluid vesicles and red blood cells (RBCs)
                      in cylindrical capillary flow is studied by using a
                      three-dimensional mesoscopic simulation approach. As flow
                      velocity increases, a model RBC is found to transit from a
                      nonaxisymmetric discocyteto an axisymmetric parachute shape
                      (coaxial with the flow axis), while a fluid vesicle is found
                      to transit from a discocyte to a prolate ellipsoid. Both
                      shape transitions reduce the flow resistance. The critical
                      velocities of the shape transitions are linearly dependent
                      on the bending rigidity and on the shear modulus of the
                      membrane. Slipper-like shapes of the RBC model are observed
                      around the transition velocities. Our results are in good
                      agreement with experiments on RBCs.},
