    The question must have enough info for a meaningful answer. Otherwise the only difference is that one is thick and the other thin. Are they hollow cylinders? Do they contain pressure? What is the intended purpose?

    The question needs to be more informative. Else, the answer would be same as post #2 above. Are you, in any way, asking about Comparison of stress systems between thin and thick cylinder? 😨

    PS: We're no mind readers, so you will have to explain your question in detail.

    If the wall thickness of the cylinder is less than 1/10 of the diameter of the cylinder, then it is called a thin cylinder. If the wall thickness of the cylinder is greater than 1/10 of the diameter of the cylinder, then it is called a thick cylinder.
