Which risk dramatically increases after thermal cycling affects the intricate inlaid Pietra Dura of Mughal-era monuments?

💡 Explanation

Delamination risk increases because differential thermal expansion applies shear stress across the interfaces, weakening the bond in the adhesive forces holding the pietra dura mosaic together, therefore individual pieces detach rather than the whole losing tensile strength.
