An apparatus for damping an actuator (202) includes an inerter (300). The inerter (300) includes a first terminal (302) and a second terminal (304) movable relative to one another along an inerter axis (306) and configured to be mutually exclusively coupled to a support structure (116) and a movable device (124) actuated by an actuator (202). The inerter (300) further includes a rod (224, 308) coupled to and movable with the first terminal (302) and a threaded shaft (322) coupled to and movable with the second terminal (304). The inerter (300) further includes a flywheel (314) having a flywheel annulus (318) coupled to one of the rod (224, 308) and the threaded shaft (322). The flywheel (314) is configured to rotate in proportion to axial acceleration of the rod (224, 308) relative to the threaded shaft (322) in correspondence with actuation of the movable device (124) by the actuator (202).
