Abstract-The paper uses the LU-parametric representation of fuzzy numbers and fuzzy-valued functions, to obtain valid approximations of fuzzy generalized derivative and to solve fuzzy differential equations. The main result is that a fuzzy differential initial-value problem can be translated into a system of in nitely many ordinary differential equations and, by the LU-parametric representation, the in nitely many equations can be approximated ef ciently by a nite set of four ODEs. Some examples are included.
