Abstract
This thesis will be focused on the analysis of aeroelastic aspects of kites (flexible and rigid) applied to wind energy generation. The methodology will be gradual, starting developing and/or employing more efficient but less representative models and aiming at raising their complexity and fidelity along the thesis.
