We have carried out over 120 galaxy formation N-body simulations modeling gravity, gas dynamics and star formation using TREESPH on a parallel computer. Our aims were to investigate whether or not numerical galaxies formed from idealized cosmological perturbations can account for the Hubble sequence and the diversity of disk galaxies observed in the field.
