	Abstract:
	In this paper we discuss the existence and the structure of approximate solutions of autonomous one-dimensional second order variational problems related to a model in thermodynamics. We are interested in turnpike properties of the approximate solutions which are independent of the length of the interval, for all sufficiently large intervals.

One-dimensional infinite horizon variational problems arising in continuum mechanics
