In this work, we present two numerical methods to approximate solutions of systems of dissipative sine-Gordon equations that arise in the study of one-dimensional, semi-infinite arrays of Josephson junctions coupled through superconducting wires. Also, we present schemes for the total energy of such systems in association with the finite-difference schemes used to approximate the solutions. The proposed methods are conditionally stable techniques that yield consistent approximations not only in the domains of the solution and the total energy, but also in the approximation to the rate of change of energy with respect to time. The methods are employed in the estimation of the threshold at which nonlinear supratransmission takes place, in the presence of parameters such as internal and external damping, generalized mass, and generalized Josephson current. Our results are qualitatively in agreement with the corresponding problem in mechanical chains of coupled oscillators, under the presence of the same parameters.
