Convert Global Analysis Results to Local Axis through Batch Generator

Converting the analysis results of a model that is in the global axis to the local axis from the batch generator can be very convenient and ideal for automation. If I wanted to run, say, a Python file that calls the batch generator to run analysis and return the forces and moments in the local axis, I can immediately use those outputs for further calculations and code checks outside of the GUI without having to manually transform the global results to the local axis, as some code checks requires outputs with respect to the local axis.

One way would be to open up a model and manually change the axis system to local from the Model Results options. However, if there were multiple models that needed to be converted to the local axis (it can be 10, 50, or even 100), it would be very inefficient and timely to open up every AutoPIPE model and manually change the global axis to the local axis, run analysis, then print out the forces and moments results.

This can be done by either giving a parameter in the dos commands in a .bat file that tells AutoPIPE to print out the results in the local axis system, or by introducing a new command in .NTL input files that tells AutoPIPE to print the results out in the local axis system.
