An apparatus for damping the torsional excitation of a hollow drive shaft is provided. The apparatus includes an elongate member that extends along the interior of the drive shaft, one end of the member is secured to one end of the drive shaft, the other end of the member is disposed at the other end of the drive shaft, and a hydraulic damping device secured to the other end of the drive shaft for damping vibration of the other end of the member. The hydraulic damping device includes a piston and cylinder arrangement having first and second hydraulic chambers, a reservoir of hydraulic fluids, and hydraulic circuitry which uses the hydraulic chambers to communicate with the reservoir. The hydraulic damping device is arranged so that any leakage of hydraulic fluid from the first and second hydraulic chambers via a piston/cylinder interface passes to the reservoir of hydraulic fluid.
