Summary: We demonstrate a new, rigorous, accurate and efficient model for simulating the flow of a suspension of deformable particles. The model uses a hybrid system: an Eulerian approach is used for the Navier-Stokes solver, and a Lagrangian approach for the evolution of the particle mesh. We demonstrate the capabilities of the model by simulating more than 130 deformable RBC in a tube of \(60 \times 30 \times 30 \mu\)m, and the transverse migration of 20 vesicles at a low concentration (25\% by volume) in a capillary tube of dimensions \(150 \times 40 \times 40 \mu\)m, in a matter of hours.
