A damper assembly is provided that includes a housing and a rotor. The housing includes a cavity and a groove. The groove is configured for passage of damping fluid. The damper assembly defines a proximal end configured for mounting to an actuator and a distal end configured for the passage of the damping fluid, and the groove is disposed at the distal end of the cavity. The groove extends along a groove length and has at least one of a variable width or variable depth. The rotor is disposed within the housing and rotatably articulable with respect to the housing. The rotor includes a displacement member that articulates with rotation of the rotor relative to the housing along the groove length to direct the damping fluid through the groove.
