Abstract

This paper explores spherically symmetrical dynamical traversable wormhole solutions for an anisotropic fluid configuration in the context of f(R) gravity. We construct the corresponding field equations and investigate the wormhole solutions by specifying the redshift and shape functions for three models of f(R) gravity. Graphical analysis shows that ordinary matter satisfies the null as well as weak energy conditions against the time and radial coordinates for each model. It is concluded that dynamical traversable wormholes are supported by this theory.
