    Summary
    A 3D phase-field (PhF) model has been developed to study the formation of micropores constrained to grow within a well-developed solid network. The model accounts for the equilibrium condition at triple (solid-liquid-pore) lines and the partitioning of dissolved gases. Growth of a micropore in a representative volume element taken from X-ray tomography was simulated, which offered the possibility to study the pore evolution in temporal and spatial resolutions that are not possible in experiments.
