Abstract: The present paper proposed a new method to solve nth order fuzzy differential equations using collocation type of method. In the solution procedure, Gram Schmidt orthogonalisation process is used with Legendre and Chebyshev polynomials. Known example problems are solved and compared with the exact results to illustrate the efficiency and reliability of the proposed method.

Keywords: fuzzy number; triangular fuzzy number; Legendre polynomial; Chebyshev polynomial; nth order fuzzy differential equations.
