In this study, the surface wave interaction with a thin vertical submerged viscoelastic sheet as a wave barrier is investigated analytically without pre-assumption of the sheet dynamic behavior. The viscoelastic sheet spans over the entire water depth, and is tensioned and hinged on both ends. The V...
