*INCLUDE_PATH support updated to handle nested include files.
Elements and Properties Conversion
1D elements (CBEAM, CBAR, CROD, CBUSH, CELAS, and RBE3) and their properties (PBEAM, PBAR,
PROD, and PBUSH) are converted to equivalent element, property and material in LS-DYNA.
Mass element COMN2 is converted to *ELEMENT_MASS or *ELEMENT_INERTIA in LS-DYNA.
