| Abstract | A series of reports have been written to document revised and updated versions of the simulation of highway-vehicle-object interactions in a single vehicle highway environment. The programs documented were developed under FHWA sponsorship to provide the highway safety community with an analytical means of evaluating the effects of highway/roadside environment on safety. This manual is the most general of the manuals describing the simulation. It provides an introduction to the simulation and enough information for a user to submit a run, obtain results, and interpret the HVOSM output. No description of the inertial subroutine structure or the derivation of the equations used is supplied. This manual is one of four volumes. |
