Abstract :
Fuzzy methodology transforms expert ideas - formulated in terms of words from natural language - into precise rules and formulas. In this paper, we show that by applying this methodology to intuitive physical ideas, we can get fundamental physical equations. This fact provides an additional justification for the fuzzy methodology.
