Which mechanical vulnerability increases for Mughal-era pietra dura inlay panels as thermal cycling expands subsurface mortar?

💡 Explanation

Repeated expansion stresses caused by thermal cycling leads to differential movement; this increases the risk of interfacial debonding via fracture propagation because adhesive strength weakens over time, rather than compressive strengthens, therefore delamination is likelier.
