We investigate some consequences of a specific non-conservation of the energy-momentum tensor for the physics of certain cosmic string configurations. This non-conservation was induced by a new gravitational theory recently introduced as an attempt to incorporate dissipative systems in the description of gravity. This model of gravity is endowed with a variational principle, where an action dependence on the geometric sector is assumed. For the Abelian Higgs string we derive the dynamical equations and provide the numerical solutions describing the behavior of the Higgs and gauge fields and the profile of the metric functions for different cases of the parameter that characterizes the model. Additionally, from this numerical approach we find how the inner structure of the cosmic string is affected by this underlying gravitational theory, by analyzing the deviations both on the mass per unit length and the deficit angle of the string. Next, we proceed with an analytical treatment obtaining the solution close to the string axis and also the corresponding vacuum solution. Our analytical results are also complemented with the study of a thick cosmic string model, where the defect is endowed with a finite core. In this case we have obtained the proper interior solution which, joined together with the vacuum metric outside, provides an exact solution for the exterior geometry which generalizes previous results and leads to a decreasing of the mass per unit length of the cosmic string.
