Abstract: We performed SPH simulations including star formation and chemo-photometric evolution from U to K band, of isolated collapsing triaxial systems. We outlined the role of several parameters connected with the star formation rate, such as the initial mass function (IMF) which influences on the energy input by supernovae per stellar generation. This energy release, indeed, is the key parameter for the evolution of the baryonic matter. By generating integrated colours, metallicities, brightness profiles and multi-wavelength maps, we give further insight into the role of different parameters examined. Colors and metallicities of some local dwarf and spiral galaxies well agree with those of the luminous matter provided by our simulations.
