The purpose of this article is to give an overview of the theory of the normal cycle and to show how to use it to define a curvature measures on singular surfaces embedded in an (oriented) Euclidean space . In particular, we will introduce the notion of asymptotic cone associated to a Borel subset of , generalizing the asymptotic directions defined at each point of a smooth surface. For simplicity, we restrict our singular subsets to polyhedra of the -dimensional Euclidean space . The coherence of the theory lies in a convergence theorem: If a sequence of polyhedra tends (for a suitable topology) to a smooth surface , then the sequence of curvature measures of tends to the curvature measures of . Details on the first part of these pages can be found in [6].
