That is our own idea: For a demonstrator project we wanted to have different
regions on two sides of a membrane at different temperatures. The easiest thing
was using a different Langevin thermalization for different particles. In the
demonstrator you can then adjust the temperature independently and the pressure
will move the membrane.
This is not scientifically sound :-). But if you want, you might have different
particles with different frictions, but I'm not sure that this makes sense in
many systems.
