In order to confirm the possibility of using the method of Nakamura in the study of surface layers of unknown structure, the authors carried out a comparative analysis of solid amplitude-frequency response research by both of modified Nakamura’s technique and finite element method on the estimating dynamic characteristics of surface layers.
