Descripción
Barred galaxies represent more than 2/3 among disk galaxies. The
evolution of barred galaxies is deeply influenced by the dynamics of the
bar. Moreover, the evolution of the bar itself determines the morphology
of the rest of the galaxy. In this work, and by means of numerical
simulations, we will show the evolution of isolated barred galaxies from
two points of view, face-on and edge-on. In the face-on view we will
show how the shape of the bar changes from a typical bar at early stages
to ansae at later times of evolution. In the edge-on view we will show
how the morphology of the bar changes with time to form a peanut/boxy
shaped bulge and how these bulges are related to the bar itself.
