      abstract     = {Microchannels with asymmetrically ratcheted walls are here
                      shown to behave as effective and versatile microfluidic
                      pumps if locally heated. When the boundary walls have
                      different temperatures, the confined liquid experiences a
                      temperature gradient along the sawtooth edges, which can
                      induce a thermoosmotic flow. A mesoscale molecular
                      simulation approach is here employed to investigate the
                      flows which are contrasted using an analytical approach.
                      Microchannels can be composed by one or two ratcheted walls
                      which can be straight or cylindrical. Varying the channel
                      geometry can not only change the overall fluid flux, but
                      also vary the flow patters from shear to capillary type, or
                      even to extensional type flows. This scheme does not require
                      multiphase fluids or any movable channel parts, although
                      they are possible to be implemented. The proposed principle
                      is then very versatile to locally manipulate complex fluids,
                      and a promising tool to recover waste heat, to facilitate
                      cooling of microchips, and to manufacture portable
                      lab-on-a-chip devices},
