The L-shaped rigid bar shown is pin connected at C, welded to a rigid bar AB at point B, and rests on a composite bar at D. Rigid bar AB is attached to two identical rubber (G = 150 MPa) pads with the shown dimensions and having a thickness of 30 mm each. Meanwhile, composite bar DE is made of hollow aluminum (with outer diameter do and inner diameter di, E = 70 GPa) surrounding a solid steel rod (diameter = di, E = 200 GPa). Determine the maximum force P that can be applied to the rigid bar at B if the allowable normal stresses in aluminum and steel are 80 MPa and 200 MPa, respectively and the shear stress in rubber is 30 MPa. Use the following values: Parameters s = 135 mm x = 3.8 m y = 5.5 m do = 60 mm di = 35 mm
