@Vitaly. Yes you are right. However, I noticed that if I do not constraint
the bonds in my CNT my simulations run fine. It is indeed surprising to me
but I do not have much experience with simulating CNTs and if not
constraining the bonds seem to get things done, I think it is a viable
option. But still need to test a lot of things before I can decide on the
final settings.
