Systems and methods are disclosed for aircraft wheels and brakes systems for use in, for example, an aircraft. In this regard, a damper for an axle may comprise a cylindrical canister defining a cavity configured to be inserted into a bore of the axle, the cavity at least partially filled with a damping material. The damper may act as a particle damper or a tuned mass damper to mitigate harmonic vibration of the axle and therefore the wheel and brake system.
