The excitation of spiral density waves by the gravitational field of a bar in a differentially rotating flat subsystem of a galaxy is considered. A numerical investigation is carried out on the unsteady nonlinear response of a differentially rotating gas disk to the potential of a bar with the form of a prolate ellipsoid of revolution for different relationships between the angular velocity of the bar and the rotation curve of the disk. A large scale trailing spiral pattern is excited if the bar rotates faster than the greater part of the disk, and a feature of the patterns is the appearance of ring structures. A quasisteady wave pattern is established if the potential of the bar is switched on sufficiently slowly.
