The thermal analysis using standard linear tetrahedral nite elements may be severely affected by spurious local extrema in the regions affected by thermal shocks; conceivably discouraging the use of such elements as a result. The present work proposes three numerical models based on the mixed temperature/heat ux formulation to solve the unsteady thermal problem. Our new model, called the Mixed continuous formulation, should allow to improve the thermomechanical coupling effects during the simulation of
