contents This study introduces an approach for modeling unsteady transonic aerodynamics within a parametric space, using Volterra series to capture aerodynamic responses and machine learning to enable interpolation. The first- and second-order Volterra kernels are derived from indicial aerodynamic responses obtained through computational fluid dynamics, with the second-order kernel calculated as a correction to the dominant linear response. Machine learning algorithms, specifically artificial neural network and Gaussian process regression, are used to interpolate kernel coefficients within a parameter space defined by Mach number and angle of attack. The methodology is applied to two and three dimensional test cases in the transonic regime. Results underscore the benefit of including the second-order kernel to address strong nonlinearity and demonstrate the effectiveness of neural networks. The approach achieves a level of accuracy that appears sufficient for use in conceptual design.
