This study deals with oblique and normal water wave scattering by a fixed submerged body of rectangular cross section which is infinite in length and finite in width. The fluid domain is considered as infinite as well as semi-infinite in nature. The study is carried out under the assumption of small amplitude linear water wave theory. It is considered that the bottom has a step and the submerged body is considered in shallower water depth region. The velocity potential is derived using the eigenfunction expansion method. The unknown constants, which appear in the expansion formulae, are obtained using orthogonal relation along with the boundary conditions at the interfaces. The wave-induced hydrodynamic forces acting on the submerged body and vertical wall are computed for different geometrical parameters. The wave reflection coefficient and the free surface motion are also calculated to see the wave phenomena around the submerged body.
