Can't really help you directly (and since noone else has chipped in with something thought I'd at least give you some direction), but with majority of things like this two things you can do to get things going: read papers (and this emailing list) dealing with "similar things" and play with various combinations / procedures yourself.  First bit will give you a starting point, second will give you insight into how your own system behaves with the various procedures and guide you to something which is "right" for it.
 
Also, understand what each of the steps or procedures are actually for.  If it isn't applicable to your system (since majority deal with proteins and your nanotube is very different to that) then there is no need to do that.
 
Don't have any real idea on your axial compression, but you will apply it during the MD part, as that is typically the production part of it all, where you get all the information you are looking for.  Most naive way I can see you would apply the compression is by increasing the pressure in one of the axes, along the nanotube.  However, suspect it will simply rotate around in the box when that is done.  Also depends on whether it is an infinite tube versus of finite length, what will influence the ways in which you can cause the compression.
 
Hope that provides some help for you.
