Abstract
In this article, the unidirectional transport of the inertial ratchet is presented. We observe that in the ratchet, there is positive, negative or even no current. Moreover, the structure of staircases of the ratchet is argued and we observe that it becomes more regular as the damping coefficient is increased.
