Abstract
It is shown that the variational approximation scheme for one-dimensional elastodynamics given by time discretisation converges, subsequentially, weakly and a.e. to a weak solution which satisfies the entropy inequalities. We also prove convergence under the restriction of positive spatial derivative (for longitudinal motions).
