I am looking for an elegant way of demonstrating the parabolical behavior of the system:

[tex]\frac{\partial u}{\partial<br /> x}+\frac{1}{r}\frac{\partial}{\partial r}(vr)=0[/tex]

[tex]u\frac{\partial u}{\partial x}+v \frac{\partial<br /> u}{\partial r}=\frac{1}{r}\frac{\partial}{\partial r}\Big(r<br /> \frac{\partial u}{\partial r}\Big)[/tex]

Any idea?. I have read some ways of doing so by establishing a complicated matrix of coefficients, but it is only valid for linear equations.

Thanks in Advance!
