An analytical model of current loads interaction with a moored floating flexible structure based on the Timoshenko-Mindlin beam theory is developed under the assumption of small amplitude wave theory and structural response. Theoretical solutions on the displacement of the structure, reflection and transmission coefficients are obtained by applying the matching technique along with the orthogonal model coupling relation. The result of transmission coefficient and displacement amplitude are compared with the others calculation and experimental datasets available in the literature. The structural deflection and transmission coefficients are investigated via hydroelastic response for wave-current loads along with design parameters. The comparison results showed that the present model result is supported by the numerical model results. This present analysis can provide a piece of information for the marine engineer to design a floating flexible platform in the marine environment.
