Anisotropic Bianchi V Bulk Viscous Fluid Cosmological Model in f(R, T) Gravity Theory

Abstract

We investigate anisotropic Bianchi type-v accelerating and decelerating bulk viscous fluid cosmological models within the framework of f(R,T) gravity theory. We obtain exact solutions of the field equations by assuming that the anisotropy in the models is inversely proportional to power of the average scale factor which leads to two types of cosmologies, one with power-law expansion and the other one with exponential expansion. We also discuss the physical and dynamical features of derived decelerating and accelerating models of the universe.
