cylinder's
Round column's possession
Cylinder's is the possessive form of cylinder, a three-dimensional shape with parallel circular ends connected by a curved surface—like a can or a pipe.
The word indicates something belonging to or associated with a cylinder: the cylinder's diameter, the engine cylinder's compression ratio.
Also used for the contraction "cylinder is" or "cylinder has" in informal writing.
