There are only six regular 2-reptiles in the plane, four of which have fractal boundaries. Listed below are the names of these four tiles, along with the numbers of the corresponding sequences that give the decimal expansion of the Hausdorff dimension of each dragon curve's boundary; the pictures of these four 2-reptile fractals are drawn in the Mathafou link.
    . The Levy dragon: A191689
    . The Heighway dragon: A272031
    . The twin-dragon: A272031
    . The tame twin-dragon: this sequence.
The Hausdorff dimension of the dragon curve's boundary is given by dim_H(Delta dragon) = 2 * log_2(lambda_max) where lambda_max is the largest eigenvalue of some characteristic polynomial associated to the dragon tile. The characteristic polynomial associated with this tame twin-dragon tile is x^3 - x - 2 (see [Ngai, Sirvent, Veerman, Wang] link, p. 15) whose only real root is (1+sqrt(78)/9)^(1/3) + (1-sqrt(78)/9)^(1/3) = 1.521379706804... Hence the formula.

2 * log((1+sqrt(78)/9)^(1/3)+(1-sqrt(78)/9)^(1/3))/log(2) \\ Michel Marcus, Sep 21 2019

Equals 2 * log_2((1+sqrt(78)/9)^(1/3) + (1-sqrt(78)/9)^(1/3)).
