This paper proposes two interesting applications of the approach to uncertainty evaluation and representation in terms of Random-Fuzzy Variables. One covers the expression of the calibration uncertainty of gauge blocks, and one considers unknown temperature variations, with respect to temperature at calibration time, in expressing a voltmeter uncertainty. Both considered examples show that the proposed approach is more effective than the traditional GUM approach.
