The free vibrations of a rod are governed by a differential equation of the form $(a(x)y^\prime)^\prime+\lambda a(x)y(x)=0$, where $a(x)$ is the cross sectional area and $\lambda$ is an eigenvalue parameter. Using the finite element method (FEM) we transform this equation to a generalized matrix eigenvalue problem of the form $(K-\Lambda M)u=0$ and, for given $a(x)$, we correct the eigenvalues $\Lambda$ of the matrix pair $(K,M)$ to approximate the eigenvalues of the rod equation. The results show that with step size $h$ the correction technique reduces the error from $O(h^2i^4)$ to $O(h^2i^2)$ for the $i$-th eigenvalue. We then solve the inverse spectral problem by imposing numerical algorithms that approximate the unknown coefficient $a(x)$ from the given spectral data. The cross section is obtained by solving a nonlinear system using Newton's method along with a regularization technique. Finally, we give numerical examples to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithms.
