Abstract

Field equations are obtained with the aid of higher dimensional Bianchi type-I cosmological model in scale covariant theory of gravitation in the context of cosmic strings. We present here isotropic and anisotropic solutions of the field equations and some physical implications of these solutions are briefly discussed.
