Abstract: An analytical solution of the nonlinear dynamic equations for a galactic disk is found. This solution describes the spiral design of spiral galaxies. The logarithmic profile of the spiral design and relatively larger density fluctuations as compared to velocity-field fluctuations are explained. Breaking of the obtained solution takes place for a certain critical amplitude. This can be a mechanism for the formation of galactic shocks and narrow star formation regions.
