Scientific paper

The paper briefly presents a numerical code which simulates the evolution of galaxies belonging to rich clusters. The evolutionary model considers both cluster dynamics and galaxy photometry, taking into account the galaxy-cluster interactions (collisional stripping, merging, and ram-pressure stripping by the ICM) and the intrinsic galaxy evolution. Different initial mass distributions for galaxies are used, and the influence of the initial segregation in mass on the evolution of the photometrical properties is briefly discussed.
