Hooke, Robert (1635-1703), científico inglés, conocido por su estudio de la elasticidad. Hooke aportó también otros conocimientos en varios campos de la ciencia. Nació en la isla de Wight y estudió en la Universidad de Oxford. Fue ayudante del físico británico Robert Boyle, a quien ayudó en la construcción de la bomba de aire. En 1662 fue nombrado director de experimentación en la Sociedad Real de Londres, cargo que desempeñó hasta su muerte. Fue elegido miembro de la Sociedad Real en 1663 y recibió la cátedra Gresham de geometría en la Universidad de Oxford en 1665. Después del gran incendio de Londres en 1666, fue designado supervisor de esta ciudad, y diseñó varios edificios, como la casa Montague y el hospital Bethlehem. Hooke realizó algunos de los descubrimientos e invenciones más importantes de su tiempo, aunque en muchos casos no consiguió terminarlos. Formuló la teoría del movimiento planetario como un problema de mecánica, y comprendió, pero no desarrolló matemáticamente, la teoría fundamental con la que Isaac Newton formuló la ley de la gravitación. Entre las aportaciones más importantes de Hooke están la formulación correcta de la teoría de la elasticidad (que establece que un cuerpo elástico se estira proporcionalmente a la fuerza que actúa sobre él), conocida como ley de Hooke, y el análisis de la naturaleza de la combustión. Fue el primero en utilizar el resorte espiral para la regulación de los relojes y desarrolló mejoras en los relojes de péndulo. Hooke también fue pionero en realizar investigaciones microscópicas y publicó sus observaciones, entre las que se encuentra el descubrimiento de las células vegetales.

Hooke, Robert Matemático inglés.Su aptitud para las matemáticas era tal, que dominó los primeros seis libros de geometría en una sola semana. Su aprovechamiento en los estudios le mereció la pronta admisión en la Universidad de Oxford. En 1665, Hooke fue nombrado profesor de geometría en el colegio de Gresham. Entre las muchas aportaciones de Hooke se encuentran las siguientes : fue el primero en formular la teoría de los movimientos planetarios como problema mecánico; tuvo un atisbo de la gravitación universal; ideó un sistema práctico de telegrafía; inventó el resorte espiral de los relojes y el primer cuadrante dividido con tornillos y construyó la primera máquina aritmética y el telescopio gregoriano. Sin duda, Hooke fue el mecánico más notable de su época.

Robert Hooke (1635-1703) Entdecker der Zellen im Kork Von Hooke selbst existiert keine Abbildung. Ein Grund dafür könnte sein, dass sich Robert Hooke schämte, seine unvorteilhafte Gestalt und sein unschönes Gesicht abzeichnen zu lassen. Wir geben dafür an dieser Stelle seine berühmteste Abbildung wieder, die Korkzellen aus seinem Werk Micrographia. geboren am 18. Juli 1635 in Freshwater, Isle of Wight, England gestorben am 3. März 1703 in London, England Robert Hooke lernte in der Schule in Westminster Latein und Griechisch, aber anders als seine Zeitgenossen schrieb er seine Publikationen nie in lateinischer Sprache. In 1653 ging er ans Christ College in Oxford, wo er als Chorsänger wirkte. In Oxford traf Hooke auf den Physiker Boyle und wurde von ihm 1655 angestellt, um dessen Luftpumpe mitzuentwickeln. Hooke war ein erfolgreicher Experimentator, der sich der empirischen Methode von Bacon verpflichtet hatte. Er leistete auch auf vielen anderen Gebieten Bahnbrechendes, so in der Optik, Geologie und eben auch in der Biologie. Mit seinen Bildern konnte er die Zellennatur von Pflanzen zeigen. Der Begriff der Zellen geht auf seinen Versuch zurück, die beobachteten Poren in dem Korkgewebe zu beschreiben. Ab 1664 wurde er zum Kurator der physikalischen Geräte der Royal Society in London ernannt und wirkte zwischen 1677 und 1682 als Sekretär dieser renommierten Gesellschaft.
