A simplified two-dimensional mathematical model of wave interaction with a moored flexible floating rectangular beam based on the Timoshenko-Mindlin-Beam theory in finite water depth is presented. The theoretical solution of the aforesaid model is obtained by employing the matching technique along with the orthogonal mode-coupling relation in finite water depth. The convergence of the analytical solution is checked and the result of deformation is compared with the others calculation available in the literature and also compared with free-edged floating flexible bar. The effects of different physical parameters on the deformations of the floating rectangular bar and wave quantities are analysed. It is seen that the mooring stiffness and elastic modulus of the structure are of great interest for stability to be guaranteed. The present analysis will be helpful to formulate a complex flexible floating supporting system of multiple modules with considering the effect of the current.
