The book describes how curvature measures can be introduced for
certain classes of sets with singularities in Euclidean spaces. Its
focus lies on sets with positive reach and some extensions, which
include the classical polyconvex sets and piecewise smooth
submanifolds as special cases. The measures under consideration
form a complete system of certain Euclidean invariants. Techniques
of geometric measure theory, in particular, rectifiable currents
are applied, and some important integral-geometric formulas are
derived. Moreover, an approach to curvatures for a class of
fractals is presented, which uses approximation by the rescaled
curvature measures of small neighborhoods. The book collects
results published during the last few decades in a nearly
comprehensive way.
