We present results of numerical simulations of bar-unstable disks that include a dissipative gas component. The simulations have been carried out using a two-dimensional polar grid for the force calculations. The gas component has been modelled as a collection of finite-sized particles that dissipate a fraction of their relative motion during collisions.
