In this paper both exponential and power law solutions for the flat Robertson–Walker cosmological model have been derived in a generalized Brans–Dicke theory, where the parameter ω is a function of the scalar field, along with a bulk viscous fluid. The solutions are obtained in Dicke's revised units and these are also given in the original atomic units via the conformal transformation prescribed by Dicke.

Exact solutions for the spatially flat (k = 0) Robertson–Walker cosmological model in Brans–Dicke scalar tensor theory have been obtained in the presence of a causal viscous fluid. It is found that if the scale factor is a power function of the scalar field, then solutions can be obtained in the full causal theory but not in the truncated theory of non-equilibrium thermodynamics.
