Vagueness and uncertainty are intrinsic aspects of engineering design. Therefore, in this chapter, we introduce mathematical tools for modelling various types of vagueness and uncertainty, including fuzzy sets, interval-valued fuzzy sets, fuzzy-valued (type-2) fuzzy sets, rough sets, rough approximations of fuzzy sets, and two different definitions of fuzzy-rough sets. Finally, we aim to categorize different types of uncertainty regarding various sources of it.
