This thesis discusses the evolution of galaxies through the study
of the morphology, kinematics, and star formation properties of a
sample of nearby galaxies. The main body of the thesis describes
the kinematic observations with the GHaFAS Fabry-Perot instrument
on the William Herschel Telescope of a sample of 29 spiral
galaxies. The work is closely related to the Spitzer Survey of
Stellar Structure in Galaxies, and uses the mid-infrared data of
that survey to determine key parameters of the galaxies studied.
From these data, important results are obtained on streaming and
other non-circular motions in galaxies, on the distribution and
rates of star formation, and on how correlations of these
parameters and of the rotation curve shape with basic galaxy
parameters yield clues on the evolutionary processes taking place
in disk galaxies.
