Interesting point

Interesting point, at first glance I still think the equations will be the same. The SHM analogy is one of a mass on a spring. The damping is applied to the system as a whole so in theory it doesn't matter if it is applied to the spring (like a shock absorber) or the mass (like putting the mass in a fluid bath). Its function is to rob energy from the system, the energy being removed from the system slows down the response rate and reduces the amplitude of successive movements.

For it to increase the apparent resonant frequency it would have to increase the speed of response and I can't see how that would happen. If you can think of it I'd be very interested.
