Abstract
A spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-V space–time is considered in the frame work of a scale covariant theory of gravitation proposed by Canuto et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 39:429, 1977) when the matter sources is a bulk viscous fluid containing one dimensional cosmic strings. Using some physically plausible conditions, we have obtained a determinate solution of the field equations of the theory which represents a Bianchi type-V bulk viscous string cosmological model in this theory. Some physical and kinematical properties of the model are also discussed.
