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 addressed to the engineer who wishes to become familiar with the mathematical model which is the basis for the HVOSM computer simulation. It contains a detailed description of the governing equations and logic for the three documented versions of the HVOSM. This manual is one of four volumes.
