This is an Overleaf MWE.

Code from the example:

\documentclass{book}

\usepackage{indentfirst}


\usepackage{nccmath}    % align & gather doesn't use shortskip: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/386266/206774
\useshortskip           % nccmath seems to fix that even without this line


\begin{document}


1st case case case case case case case case


[\begin{cases}
    D: \text{wheel diameter} \
    A = l \sin{\beta_1} \
\end{cases}]


2nd case case case case case case case case


[\begin{cases}
    D: \text{wheel diameter} \
    A = l \sin{\beta_1} \
\end{cases}]


\end{document}

This is the problem:

enter image description here

It seems that only the first cases is affected.

    To me, using \shortskip in the present context is rather questionable. What are you trying to achieve? – Mico Nov 07 '20 at 07:49
  • @Mico align in my project is placed too far from the previous paragraph. \useshortskip fix this for me. – Minh Nghĩa Nov 07 '20 at 09:56

    never leave a blank line before a displayed equation. That is causing the bad spacing (\useshortskip can not fix that) – David Carlisle Nov 07 '20 at 15:43

    \useshortskip only applies to the next equation. So only the first one here. It is usually applied immediately before, using it in the preamble is a bit odd, if not exactly an error. – David Carlisle Nov 07 '20 at 15:49
  • @DavidCarlisle I learn LaTeX by reading Overleaf examples. I think I made a huge huge mistake, for not thoroughly reading some mathmode guides. I always put newline around non-inline equations. – Minh Nghĩa Nov 07 '20 at 17:53
