These days Hooke is well known only for his law of elasticity: that the amount a material stretches is proportional to the force applied. Such stretching, inter alia, causes the material to get thinner, of course. Unless, that is, the substance in question is an auxetic material, in which case it gets fatter. Robert Hooke's near namesake, Patrick Hook, the boss of Auxetix, a small firm based in south-west England, hopes to exploit this weirdness to make everything from body armour to dental floss.
