1 AVIA305 Sec D02 Brian Cortez Annotated Bibliography J. Domino, Z. Czyż and R. Bąbel, "Aerodynamic Load Measurements on the Example of Diamond DA42 Model Aircraft," 2023 IEEE 10th International Workshop on Metrology for AeroSpace (MetroAeroSpace), Milan, Italy, 2023, pp. 704-708, doi: 10.1109/MetroAeroSpace57412.2023.10189976. This paper deals with the design, preparation and manufacture of a model aircraft for wind tunnel testing. The project was based on the twin-engine aircraft, Diamond DA42. Based on technical drawings, a model of thie aircraft was made in a CAD environment and subsequently 3D printed using FDM technology. The dimensions of the model were adjusted to the size of the wind tunnel measurement space. The model omitted aircraft structural elements such as propellers and landing gear. The entire model was then mounted on a 6-component force balance. For the final version of the model, wind tunnel tests were conducted. The work was supplemented with a description of the test stand and several tests were carried out. The test results provide useful insights into the aerodynamic design and characteristics of the aircraft. Szczepaniak, R., Pożoga, Ł., Stabryn, S., & Stryczniewicz, W. (2016). FCFD analysis of the influence of winglets on the aerodynamic performance of the DA42 diamond aircraft.  Journal of KONES. Powertrain and Transport 23 (1), 361–368. https://doi.org/10.5604/12314005.1213551  This journal presents the application of CAE software for an investigation of the aerodynamic performance of a small two-engine aircraft, the DA42. In the study, Computational Fluid Dynamics was applied in order to determine the influence of winglets on the aerodynamic performance of the DA42 Diamond aircraft. The simulations were performed with the use of SolidWorks Flow Simulation software. In order to evaluate the influence of the winglets on the lift and drag force, two configurations of the selected aircraft were modelled: with and without

The maximum reduction of the induced drag was achieved at high angles of attack. This research is pivotal to a well structured argument on the reasoning for the design of the subject aircraft.

Flight Global. https://www.flightglobal.com/flight-test-diamond-aircraft-da42-sparkling- performer/55396.article  This article from flight global gives an overview on the key features of the Diamond DA42 that made it appealing to the masses when it first released. The article goes on to talk about the development, configuration, and operational ability of the DA42. It is particularly useful because it was published at the time of release of the aircraft, giving it timely relevance. Diamond. (n.d.-a).

It contains everything from performance calculations, weight and balance, systems, operating procedures and limitations. It is a comprehensive overview into the inner workings of this aircraft and is an invaluable resource in calculating aerodynamic performance metrics to add sustenance to my essay.
