Sperm cells swim through the fluid by a periodic wave-like beating of their flagellum. At low Reynolds numbers and in confinement, the directed motion of sperm and other microswimmers is strongly influenced by steric and hydrodynamic wall interactions. We model sperm motility in mesoscale hydrodynamics simulations by imposing a planar traveling ben...
