Abstract

We study the Born-Infeld D-brane action in the limit when the string coupling goes to infinity. The resulting actions is presented in an arbitrary background and shown to describe a foliation of the world-volume by strings. Using a recently developed ``degenerate'' supergravity the parton picture is shown to be applicable also to supersymmetric D-branes.
