Anisotropic Bianchi Type-III Bulk Viscous Fluid Universe in Lyra Geometry

Abstract EN

An anisotropic Bianchi type-III cosmological model is investigated in the presence of a bulk viscous fluid within the framework of Lyra geometry with time-dependent displacement vector.

It is shown that the field equations are solvable for any arbitrary function of a scale factor.

To get the deterministic model of the universe, we have assumed that (i) a simple power-law form of a scale factor and (ii) the bulk viscosity coefficient are proportional to the energy density of the matter.

The exact solutions of the Einstein’s field equations are obtained which represent an expanding, shearing, and decelerating model of the universe.

Some physical and kinematical behaviors of the cosmological model are briefly discussed.
