HIGHWAY-VEHICLE-OBJECT SIMULATION MODEL-1976 PROGRAMMERS MANUAL

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 applications programmer who might wish to modify or extend the HVOSM. The detailed descriptions of the subroutines and linkages among them are designed to be used in conjunction with a source program listing. Ancillary information of interest to the programmer is also included. (FHWA)
