Lectures or Presentations on XFEM

Submitted by Dilip Kumar on Thu, 11/24/2011 - 22:15

I am planning to start my Masters in civil engineering. I am interested in working in the areas of XFEM. I am looking for some online lectures or any videos related to XFEM, but was not able to find any. If anyone of you have access to or have related links, kindly update me in this post.

Thanks
