It is a thin cylinder. Say thickness is 10mm and dia is 15X thickness= 150mm. So how can it be a thick cylinder?

According to Wikipedia if D/t >= 20 then its thin shell.

d/t>20 means thin so here 15 that's why it is a thick cylinder.

If. t >=D/20-------- >>>>>>>thick.
t < D/20--------->>>>>>>thin.
A/c question, t=D/15---This implies it is a thick cylinder.
t < D/20--------->>>>>>>thin.
A/c question, t=D/15---This implies it is a thick cylinder.

t/d>1/20 for thick.
t/15t>1/20.
1/15>1/20 so its a thick one.
t/15t>1/20.
1/15>1/20 so its a thick one.

@Robert.
If d/t>20 then t/d<1/20.
If d/t>20 then t/d<1/20.
