Systems and methods for detecting conditions of a fluid conduit

A system configured to monitor a plurality of fluid conduits that each support a flow of a fluid associated with a structure, the system comprising:

• a plurality of sensor assemblies positioned on the plurality of fluid conduits, wherein the plurality of sensor assemblies comprises one or more strain gauges, and wherein the one or more strain gauges are positioned at one or more bends of the plurality of fluid conduits;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• determine a presence of a leak of the fluid along the plurality of fluid conduits based on data from the plurality of sensor assemblies corresponding to one or more strain signatures indicative of a strain pattern;
• and
• in response to determining the presence of the leak of the fluid, provide an output to a display screen, a speaker, a valve, or any combination thereof.

A method of monitoring a condition of a fluid conduit that supports a flow of fluid, the method comprising:

• receiving, at one or more processors, data from one or more strain gauges positioned on the fluid conduit;
• determining, using the one or more processors, a presence of a leak of the fluid or a failure condition along the fluid conduit based on data from the one or more strain gauges corresponding to one or more strain signatures indicative of a strain pattern, wherein the one or more strain gauges are positioned at one or more bends of the fluid conduit;
• and
• instructing, using the one or more processors, an output via a display screen, a speaker, a valve, or any combination thereof in response to determining the presence of the leak of the fluid or the failure condition.
