Elasticity Relations
Abstract In 1676 Robert Hooke published his observations on the extensions of metal springs under tension, as an anagram at the end of a lecture describing a new type of telescope. The anagram, “ceiiinosssttuu”, when decoded, yields the Latin phrase ut tensio sic vis. In 1678 he published a full lecture on the topic, summarized as “The Power of any Spring is in the same proportion with the Tension thereof”, or that extension is proportional to strain [46]. This one scientific study, which is now enshrined as Hooke’s law, is the only for which Hooke is so honored. His extensive work in mechanics, astronomy, geology, optics, and other matters (such as the incidental invention of the universal joint), go mostly unmentioned.
