Matrix-continued fraction solutions of some stochastic equations with random telegraph noise

The seven independent adiabatic elastic constants of CaWO₄ are calculated using Born's longwave method and the rigid ion model of Steinman et al. (1972). Good agreement exists between the calculated elastic constants and those measured by Gluyas et al. (1973). The sign of C₁₆ is consistent with the observation of Farley et al. (1972). Further the dynamical equilibrium conditions are also found to be satisfied for this model.
