Major physical characteristics of Rochelle salt: the role of thermal   strains
  We compare the results for the related to the shear strain \epsilon_4 physical characteristics of Rochelle salt obtained within the recently developed modified two-sublattice Mitsui model that takes into account the strain \epsilon_4 and the diagonal components of the strain tensor \epsilon_1, \epsilon_2, \epsilon_3 with the results of the previous modification of the Mitsui model with the strain \epsilon_4 only. Within the framework of the model with the diagonal (thermal expansion) strains, we also reexamine the effects of the longitudinal electric field E_1 on the dielectric properties of Rochelle salt.
