$$v_t  = v_{rr} + \frac{1}{r} v_r + g(u,v)  $$

But at $r=0$, it becomes :

$$u_t = 2u_{rr}-2uv_{rr}-u_r h_r +f(u,v)$$
$$v_t = 2v_{rr}+g(u,v)$$

So, my doubts are:

1. Since, its a time dependent, vector valued \& non-linear set of PDEs, which tutorials should I follow to solve these? I found 21, 26, 31 \& 31 related but some of them are too complicated, is there any relatively simpler way !! \\

You just have a system of coupled heat equations. 21, 26, 22 seems like a reasonably choice.


2. How to handle the condition at $r=0$ with the homogeneous Neumann BC?

You don't have to do anything special if you don't just multiply by a test function (say, w(r)) and then integrate over r=0...R, but if you also multiply by a weight factor 2*pi*r. So, for example, out of the u_t term, you'll get

  \int_{r=0}^R  w(r)  u_t(r) 2*pi r  dr

This way, the singularity disappears in all relevant terms.
