Primary 2002 paper by Malcolm C. Smith, IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control47(10), 1648–1662. Abstract and pp1648–1651 introduce the ideal two-terminal inerter and mechanical realizations; the physical examples use rotational inertia and transmission geometry. University-hosted PDF is indexed but direct reader retrieval timed out; the abstract and indexed realization passages were verified.

Accepted manuscript §17, p.25, uses the force–current analogy and defines mechanical impedance as transformed relative velocity divided by force, with admittance its inverse. Check this convention when comparing with a force/velocity definition.
