contents Variational models for cohesive fracture are based on the idea that the fracture energy is released gradually as the crack opening grows. Recently, [Conti, Focardi, and Iurlano, Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré C Anal. Non Linéaire, 2016] proposed a variational approximation via $Γ$-convergence of a class of cohesive fracture energies by phase-field energies of Ambrosio-Tortorelli type, which may be also used as regularization for numerical simulations. In this paper we address the question of the asymptotic behaviour of critical points of the phase-field energies in the one-dimensional setting: we show that they converge to a selected class of critical points of the limit functional. Conversely, each critical point in this class can be approximated by a family of critical points of the phase-field functionals.
