Abstract	We study dynamics of a deformable entity (such as a vesicles under hydrodynamical constraints). We show how the problem can be solved by means of Green's functions associated with the Stokes equations. A gauge-field invariant formulation makes the study of dynamics efficient. However, this procedure has its short-coming. For example, if the fluids are not Newtonian, then no Green's function is available in general. We introduce a new approach, the advected field one, which opens a new avenue of applications. For example, non-Newtonian entities can be handled without additional deal. In addition problems like budding, droplet break-up in suspensions, can naturally be treated without additional complication. We exemplify the method on vesicles filled by a fluid having a viscosity contrast with the external fluid, and submitted to a shear flow. We show that beyond a viscosity contrast (the internal fluid being more viscous), the vesicle undergoes a tumbling bifurcation, which has a saddle-node nature. This bifurcation is known for blood cells. Indeed red cells either align in a shear flow or tumble according to whether haematocrit concentration is high or low.
