Field testing captured ambient and low-level forced vibrations to extract modal parameters, while seismic assessment using detailed finite element models in Abaqus established retrofit strategies compatible with the monument’s heritage value.</p> <p>Key outcomes:</p> <ul> <li>Developed a dynamic characterization workflow using only two sensors.</li> <li>Detailed numerical model validated against experimental data.</li> <li>Provided recommendations for targeted strengthening that preserve the monument’s architecture.</li> </ul> <p>This research was conducted during M.Tech. program at IIT Kanpur.</p> <h2 id="publications">Publications</h2> <div id="top" class="not-prose flex flex-wrap gap-x-6 gap-y-2 text-blue-600 dark:text-blue-400"> <a href="#conference-papers" class="no-underline hover:no-underline">[Conference Papers]</a> <a href="#theses" class="no-underline hover:no-underline">[Theses]</a> </div><section class="pub-section" id="conference-papers"> <h2>Conference Papers</h2><div class="pub-list-item view-citation flex gap-4 items-start" style="margin-bottom: 1rem"> <span class="font-semibold text-right w-16 shrink-0 mt-1">(C3)</span> <div class="flex-1"> <i class="far fa-file-alt pub-icon" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="article-metadata li-cite-author"> <span > D.
