The composite shaft, consisting of aluminum, copper, and steel sections, is subjected to the loading shown. Determine the displacement of end \( \mathrm{A} \) with respect to end \( \mathrm{D} \). The cross-sectional area and modulus of elasticity for each section are shown in the figure. Neglect the size of the collars at \( \mathrm{B} \) and \( \mathrm{C} \). Section \( A B \) is Aluminum with Young's modulus of \( 70 \mathrm{GPa} \) and an area of 64 \( \mathrm{mm}^{2} \). Section BC is Copper with Young's modulus of \( 126 \mathrm{GPa} \) and an area of 78 \( \mathrm{mm}^{2} \). Section CD is Steel with Young's modulus of \( 200 \mathrm{GPa} \) and an area of \( 42 \mathrm{~mm}^{2} \). The displacement of end A with respect to end \( D \) is ............... \( \mathrm{mm} \)
