    This paper investigates numerical solutions for several kinds of sine-Gordon equations using variational methods and finite element approximations. For the case of one dimension and continuous time, a semi-discrete algorithm is proposed using Gauss-Legendre quadrature and Runge-Kutta methods. Furthemore, the convergence of the algorithm is proved. Finally, several numerical examples are implemented and some simulation results are presented to show the efficiency of the scheme.
