Abstract

A new class of relativistic perfect fluid cylinders with expansion proportional to shear scalar have been derived by considering the Einstein-Rosen metric. It is shown that the solutions obtained by other workers do not satisfy the isotropy conditions and therefore are erroneous. The solutions derived in this article are analyzed kinematically.
