Abstract
Previously published Brillouin and ultrasonic data are interpreted using a dynamical model which couples the order parameter to the shear (epsilon(4)) and longitudinal (epsilon(2)) strains. The model takes into account the co ntribution of the nonlinear fluctuations of the order parameter and provide s a good quantitative agreement with the experiments.
