Abstract

A five dimensional Kaluza-Klein space-time is considered in the frame work of a scalar-tensor theory proposed by Saez and Ballester (Phys. Lett. A 113, 467, 1985) when the source for energy momentum tensor is a bulk viscous fluid containing one dimensional strings. A barotropic equation of state for the pressure and density is assumed to get a determinate solution of the field equations. Also the bulk viscous pressure is assumed to be proportional to the energy density. The physical and kinematical properties of the model are also discussed.
