Abstract

In this paper, we have constructed the cosmological models of the universe in a cylindrically symmetric space time in two classes of \(f(R,T)\) gravity (Harko et al. in Phys. Rev. D 84:024020, 2011). We have discussed two cases: one in the linear form and the other in the quadratic form of \(R\). The matter is considered to be in the form of perfect fluid. It is observed that in the first case, the pressure and energy density remain the same, which reduces to a Zeldovich fluid. In the second case we have studied the quadratic function of \(f(R,T)\) gravity in the form \(f(R)=\lambda(R+R^{2})\) and \(f(T)=\lambda T\). In the second case the pressure is in the negative domain and the energy density is in the positive domain, which confirms that the equation of state parameter is negative. The physical properties of the constructed models are studied.
