Abstract
I will present results of chemo-hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy formation using the algorithm GCD+. This algorithm includes the effects of gravitation, gasdynamics, and radiative cooling, plus a subgrid treatment of star formation, supernovae feedback, and chemical enrichment. The results will focus on the structural, kinematic, and chemical properties of galaxies, their time-evolution, and how they compare with observations.
